Product Description

Description

Integrating seamlessly into industrial fieldbus topologies, the Beckhoff EL6751-0010 EtherCAT Terminal serves as a high-performance communication gateway for linking CANopen protocols directly to an EtherCAT network. This 1-channel communication interface offers bidirectional translation, operating smoothly in either master or slave modes to harmonize field device communication with high-speed controllers. Engineered to minimize system overhead, the unit utilizes standard EtherCAT transport structures to transmit CANopen data frames without bottlenecking processing cycle times.

Features

  • Multi-Role Capability: Operates as a CANopen network master, a CANopen manager, or optionally as a CANopen slave.
  • Broad Transfer Rates: Supports standard baud rates including 10, 20, 50, 100, 125, 250, 500, 800, and 1000 kbaud.
  • Electrical Protection: Integrated 9-pin D-sub port is galvanically decoupled to prevent electrical noise propagation across sub-systems.
  • Real-Time Diagnostics: Front-facing status LEDs display immediate operating states and communication faults.
  • Compact Form Factor: Standard 24 mm housing matches other terminal designs for quick, uniform DIN-rail installation.

Applications

  • Integration of legacy CANopen-based drives, encoders, and pneumatic manifolds into EtherCAT architectures.
  • Decentralized control subnetworks in packaging systems, assembly machines, and material handling systems.
  • Inter-system communication linkages between separate PLC modules and external sub-control units.

Empirical Engineering Insights

Alternative Models & Compatibility

The EL6751-0010 serves primarily as a CANopen slave interface profile. If a pure CANopen master connection is required without slave operational modes configured in your software environment, ensure your TwinCAT System Manager software is updated to recognize the differences in the hardware description files (ESI XML) between standard EL6751 modules and the EL6751-0010 variant. Firmware mismatches during online scan discovery can result in safe-operational state transition errors.

Application Pitfalls & Engineering Notes

When utilizing this terminal at transmission rates above 500 kbaud, transmission distance drops sharply. Ensure total network branch lengths do not violate standard CANopen cabling limits. At 1000 kbaud, keep segment lines shorter than 40 meters. Avoid running the communication cable in the same cable tray as motor leads to minimize induction currents interfering with the CAN transceiver differential voltages.

Commissioning & Wiring Tips

Always insert a standard 120-ohm termination resistor between Pin 2 and Pin 7 at the physical physical ends of your CANopen bus run. The EL6751-0010 does not provide switchable internal bus termination. Standard diagnostic protocols in TwinCAT require manual bus scanning; if the physical node remains unresponsive, check that the E-bus power feed terminal can handle the terminal's 230 mA power consumption alongside other high-current modules in your stack.

Installation Guidelines

CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING

Isolate all electrical power sources supplying the DIN rail assembly, control cabinet, and auxiliary communication buses before sliding or snapping the terminal into place. Failure to completely de-energize active E-bus segments can cause severe permanent damage to internal backplane contacts, logical transceivers, and adjacent I/O modules.

1
Mount the module vertically onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail conforming to EN 60715, ensuring the safety lock mechanism clicks firmly in place.
2
Align and push adjacent modules together to engage the male-female lateral guide slots and link internal E-bus connections.
3
Connect the pre-assembled 9-pin D-sub terminal cable to the front port and hand-tighten the securing screws to guarantee a reliable grounding link through the shell.

FAQ
Does the EL6751-0010 require an external power supply for the CAN bus?
The terminal is powered via the EtherCAT E-bus (typically 230 mA). While the transceiver communication circuit is galvanically isolated and self-powered, a direct external supply for standard CAN transceivers is not strictly required unless your specific field devices demand external V+ on Pin 9.
What is the primary difference between the EL6751 and EL6751-0010?
The standard EL6751 is typically used for CANopen Master applications. The EL6751-0010 contains specific firmware and hardware configurations optimized for operating primarily as a CANopen Slave or specialized CANopen co-manager under a TwinCAT controller environment.
Are termination resistors integrated into the EL6751-0010 D-sub interface?
No. There is no internal termination resistor. A standard 120-ohm termination resistor must be connected externally between Pin 2 (CAN_L) and Pin 7 (CAN_H) if the terminal is located at the absolute physical end of the CAN segment.
