__ Getting Started Guide 3

1. Objective

Show how to program a sample EtherCAT control system by using a Contec EtherCAT slave

device, CPS-ECS341-1-011 + CONPROSYS I/O devices, the CPS-DIO-0808BL.

Because the built-in CODESYS Runtime software, the Contec CONPROSYS PAC series

controllers are suitable runtime controllers for EtherCAT control systems that can be

programmed by any of the IEC-61131-3 standard PLC program languages without additional

development software costs.

Before invest a Contec EtherCAT master controller, you can invest an EtherCAT slave device,

CPS-ECS341-1-011 + a digital input and output module, CPS-DIO-0808BL first and program

a sample EtherCAT control program under a free of charge CODESYS Integrated

Development Environment (IDE).

In this guide, the EtherCAT master controller will be simulated by the development PC that

runs the CODESYS IDE software. It is trying to help you to find that by using Contec

CONPROSYS PAC controllers, built-in CODESYS Runtime system devices, it is very easy to

program an EtherCAT control system under the CODESYS Integrated Development

Environment.

Note: The simulated EtherCAT master controller (simulation PLC) is not a real time device and actives one hour.

2. Necessary Hardware Devices and Software products

Hardware:

• A computer (Running CODESYS Integrated Development System) with one LAN (Ethernet) port and

another network to connect internet (download CODESYS IDE system and necessary library).

• A Contec CPS-ECS341-1-011 EtherCAT Slave unit

• A Contec CPS-DIO-0808BL module

• A Contec CPS-PWD-30AW24-01 power supply (24VDC power supply)

• One LAN cable

Software

• CODESYS Integrated Development Environment (Download from CODESYS store free of charge)

• WinPCap: an open source library for packet capture and network analysis for the Win32 platforms.

(Download from winpcap.org free of charge)

3. Download the CODESYS

CODESYS Development System can be downloaded from the CODESYS Store.

(1) Access to the following URL and click [download].

The CODESYS is constantly updated, therefore, be certain to download the latest system.

http://store.codesys.com/codesys.html

(2) In the popup window, click “>>Go to Loging or Create an Account”

3. Download the CODESYS

(3) In the “Registered Customers”, enter your “Email Address” and “Password” to log in.

If you are a new customer, complete user registration in the “New Customers”.

(To register as a private customer may be easier to download the IDE soon.)

(4) Click [Download] again, then download will be started.

In this guide, the version of the IDE is “CODESYS V3.5 SP10 Patch2”.

(5) Execute the downloaded file, then proceed to the installation of the CODESYS development environment.

(Note: the installation may take more than one hour.)

4. Download package program

To use Contec products in the CODESYS system, a CODESYS package program is necessary.

(1) Download the CODESYS package .zip file from CONTEC web site.

http://www.contec.com/products/downloadusa.cgi?HTML=DTL&KATA=CPS-PC341EC-1-9201&KATASIKI=cps-pc&BUNRUI=0,0,0&SYUBETU=0#3

Download file: [CONPROSYS PAC Series120.zip]

Unzip the downloaded file to [CONTEC CONPROSYS PAC Series.package]

4-1. Download packet library software

Using the development PC to simulate an EtherCAT master controller, a WinPcap open source library

software is needed.

• Download the [WinPcap_4_1_3.exe] or the latest version of the WinPcap library software

from winpcap.org web site.

(1) Download and run the executable

(2) Follow the instructions on the screen. The installation applet will automatically detect the operating

system and install the correct drivers

(3) The WinPcap-based applications are now ready to work

(These three instructions are from the winpcap.org web page.)

• After installation, restart the development PC.

5. Connect Devices

1) Attach the CPS-DIO-0808BL module to the EtherCAT slave controller, CPS-ECS341-1-011 unit.

2) Connect LAN port of development PC with “IN” port of CPS-ECS341-1-011 via Ethernet cable.

3) Power on the development PC.

4) Supply +24VDC power to the EtherCAT slave controller.

5) Change network setting of the development PC. Set the IP address of the development PC to

[192.168.1.102] and the subnet mask to [255.255.255.0].

6. Start Development System
