The iR-ECAT, which connects iR series I/O modules, functions as an EtherCAT slave, allowing control by EtherCAT master controllers simply by importing the iR-ECAT’s ESI (EtherCAT Slave Information file) description file. Compliant with ETG5001, convenient to configure and easy to use, iR-ECAT is a powerful tool for integrating EtherCAT systems into the industrial automation industry.
