Creating a TwinCAT project

• Start the 'TwinCAT System Manager'
• Open a new project
• Append an EtherCAT bus to the 'I/O Devices'

To the EtherCAT bus, you can add EtherCAT slave devices (boxes).

Repeat the following steps until your project is completely emulated.

To execute the following step, the AMK EtherCAT configuration file must be integrated within TwinCAT.
Siehe 'Integrating the AMK device description file into TwinCAT '.

Below 'AMK Arnold Mueller GmbH & Co. KG', the AMK EtherCAT slave device types are listed. Numbers is brackets show the EtherCAT revision.

You will find the device type printed on the front plate of the controller card (e.g. KW-R06)
