The default EtherCAT frame rate in ecmc is set to 1kHz. For most applications this is however not needed and can therefore be reduced. A reduced EtherCAT rate reduces the load on the controller. In general, a good value for the frame rate is in the range 100Hz to 1kHz. For motion systems, a frame rate of 100Hz..500Hz is normally enough. Rates ouside the 100Hz..1kHz range is normally not a good idea, and some slaves might not support it. However, in special cases both lower and higher rates might be possible and required.
Example: Set rate to 500Hz
require ecmccfg "EC_RATE=500" ...
For more information see the chapter startup.cmd.
As a comparison, TwinCAT default EtherCAT rates are:
See ecmc_server for more information.
For more information see:
The variable “ECMC_CONFIG_RETURN_VAL” then can be used to set record fields, name or alias for instance..
In DAQ mode, motion functionalities are disabled and the following commands are blocked:
This mode is intended to be used for pure DAQ use cases.
Example of starting ecmc in DAQ mode:
$(ECMCCFG_INIT)$(SCRIPTEXEC) ${ecmccfg_DIR}startup.cmd, "IOC=$(IOC),ECMC_VER=develop,MODE=DAQ"
NOTE: The default record update rate is set to 10ms in initAlll.cmd. For DAQ applications it could be needed to change this parameter to update records faster by changing the ECMC_SAMPLE_RATE_MS variable:
epicsEnvSet("ECMC_SAMPLE_RATE_MS",1)
In this mode all features are supported, but motor record will not be created for motion axes.
Setting the parameter ENG_MODE=1 will result in loading of extra PVs usefull for commissioning, i.e. controller parameters for motion axes.

ethercat states
With this command a specific state of a slave can be forced, or at least an attempt to enter the specific state is made.
This is helpful when a slave is stuck, e.g. with an error. Rather than cycle the power of the entire controller, the slave can be set to ‘REBOOT’. This might be enough to recover.
Alternatively, cycling to ‘INIT’ and back to ‘OP’ might also be attempted.
A power cycling of the of the EtherCAT components is the last resort!
The status bits can then be masked away by:
For the EL703x drives the nominal voltage must be set to 24V (ecmccomp handles this automatically).
Use a multimeter to verify that the voltage level corresponds to voltage levels described in the electrical drawings. If the voltage is correct, then the over voltage alarm could be related to worng setting of nominal drive voltage setting (24V but the drive is powered with 48V).
The nominal drive voltage setting can be changed by the U_NOM_MV macro when applying the component (ecmccomp).
Example: Set nominal voltage to 48V
${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}addSlave.cmd, "HW_DESC=EL7041-0052" ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccomp_DIR}applyComponent.cmd "COMP=Motor-Generic-2Phase-Stepper, MACROS='I_MAX_MA=1000, I_STDBY_MA=500, U_NOM_MV=48000, R_COIL_MOHM=1230'" -
There are normally several control loops in an ecmc system:
However, for the EL70x1 drives there’s no dedicated velocity loop (however some current boost settings that can be applied in acc/dec, see below)
For more information on tuning the position loop see tuning
For most usecases, the default current controller parameters are already well tuned. Sometimes when operating at higher speeds the current loop needs to be tuned.
For EL70x1 stepper drives the following parameters can be tuned:
8011:07 Ka factor / 8011:08 Kd factor are “current boosts” during acceleration/deceleration. +
The following parameters can be tuned for a EL70x1 stepper drive:
8011:07 Ka factor / 8011:08 Kd factor are “current boosts” during acceleration/deceleration. Default they are set to 100% which is normally is too high for most applications. Start by setting these parameters to 0.
This is the current loop settings and this is also what affect the performance. The higher you set these registers, the stiffer the control loop. For most applications it is important to keep a ration of 40:1. Default is 400 / 10, if you want a stiffer loop, then change to f ex 800 / 20 and onwards. Increase until the motor misbehaves and go back to a safe setting.
In the standard setup at PSI over current protection modules are used to feed 24V to both the EtherCAT communication bus (E-bus) and the power bus of the EtherCAT slaves. If the over current protection is not enabled then the EtherCAT slaves will not receive power.
First time, (and only first time), a system is in use, the overcurrent modules needs to be enabled in order to allow current to flow. Enabling is done by push buttons in the LED area of the module. The long horizontal LEDs are in fact buttons that can be used to activate or tripp the over current protection.
Before pressing any button, check the electrical drawings and make sure it’s safe to power on the system.
The EL9221-5000 has one channel and therefore only the top button is needed to be pressed.
The EL9227-5500 is a 2 channel module and normally both channels needs to be enabled by pressing both the top and bottom long LED. if only one are pressed it could result in that the power to the communication is fine but the power to the i/o bus is lacking. This can result in starnge issues. Both EL9227-5500 and EL9221-5000 have dedicated panels whre status of the over current protection can be seen.
Some terminals are passive. Passive terminals are not EtherCAT slaves and do not communicate over EtherCAT (not equipped with EtherCAT slave controller). Passive terminals are normally used to simplify electrical connections (avoiding external terminals). For instance for distributing potential, 24V and 0V, an EL9184 can be used (8Ch 24V and 8Ch 0V).
The passive terminals will not show up as an EtherCAT slave when issueing the “ethercat slaves” command. However, they are normally visible in the electrical drawings. This could result in that the slave id in the electrical drawing is NOT corresponding to the EtherCAT slave index used when configuring ecmc. In worst case this could lead to that the wrong hardware/drive is configured.
When configuring ecmc, make sure the EtherCAT slave index is correct, do not blindly trust the electrical drawings since a passive terminal could introduce an shift in the slave indices.
For more information see the chapter descriping startup.cmd.
Issues that could occour in rates below 100Hz:
Issues that could occour in rates over 1Kz:
NOTE: Some slave might support a high rate but could have built in signal filters of several ms which then makes sampling at higher freqs unneccesarry/not needed.
In order to successfully run an ecmc ethercat system at higher rates some tuning might be needed:
Blindly restarting the IOC, with only partially working EtherCAT hardware, WILL RESULT IN TOTAL FAILURE OF THE IOC!!!
Check the hardware BEFORE restarting the IOC!
Due to the complexity an EtherCAT bus topology can assume, troubleshooting can be challenging. This guide should provide the basic means to diagnose simple errors and is by no means complete!
A very powerful tool is provided through the command line. See a summary, incl. some examples of what possible here.
For motion related issues, a very short troubleshooting guide is provided here.
Tune drive control loops
For hardware related issues, a very short troubleshooting guide is provided here.
Trigger manual motion (without motion ecmc-axis).
This procedure is for experts only. You run the risk of destroying expansive devices! Limit switches are not obeyed! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
For this however, the IOC needs to be reconfigured to not link the hardware to an axis!
dbgrep "*s007*"
-Drv01-Cmd
-Drv01-Spd
1
After changing this value you also need to change the drive scaling in the axis yaml file.
First check the dedicated hardware drive panel for diagnostics. If the drive is in warning or error state the diagnose the problem with the tool described in hardware.
Possible reasons:
There are normally several control loops in an ecmc motion system:
The position loop control parameters can be accessed and tuned by PVs. Normally, a pure P controller is enough (ki and kp set to 0) but sometimes the I and D part can be needed.
Backlash
Tuning systems with backlash can be difficult. Sometimes a small D-part helps to reduce spikes in the centralized ecmc position loop controller output.
These control loops need to be tuned in the drive.
For EL70x1, see EL70x1 tuning For other drives, consult the dedicated manual.
This is the respective plc file
ax${AXIS_NO}.enc.actpos:=(ax{{ var.ty1 }}.enc.actpos+ax{{ var.ty2 }}.enc.actpos)/2;
Note the mixed use to MACROs ${AXIS_NO} and local variables {{ var.ty1 }} to boost flexibility.
${AXIS_NO}
{{ var.ty1 }}
Always verify where the switches are connected in the electrical drawings.
All switches in the “input” section needs to be linked. If not used, then the simulation registers, “ONE” and “ZERO”, can be used:
Example, Use bit 1 in the ONE register of slave 1:
ec0.s1.ONE.1
If no ethercat slave is defined, slave number “-1” can be used: ec<master_id>.s-1.ONE.
This will affect the motorRecord only, thus ECMC internally is still moving in the wrong direction. You have been warned!
From v8+ yaml files are linted for syntactic errors, observe the iocsh for warnings and errors. Additionally the schema of the yaml file is checked by Cerberus. This check will point out errors in the structure of the configuration as well as certain type errors.

The resulting code will toggle two different outputs, the state of the last output will be printed.
NOTE: Macros cannot be used in the filename when including a file. Instead the dir should be defined in the INC param when loading the PLC, see above.
Adding a DBG macro can be usefull to be able to turn on/off printouts. Typically during commsioning it can be usefull to have many printouts but later when system goes into production, it could be a good idea to turn (some) printouts off.
Example of a printout that can be turned on/off (default off)
${DBG=#}println('Value: ', ${M}.s${BO_S_ID}.binaryOutput${BO_CH});
Will result in the below if setting the DBG='' (and some other macros, see above):
println('Value: ', ec0.s10.binaryOutput01);
Unfortunately debugging of function libs is not as easy as normal PLC:s since exprtk returns less infomation at compile failure.
In order to troubleshoot, load the code as a normal PLC instead. This way you will get more diagnostics. Also remember, ecmc varaibles cannot be accessed in plc libs.
