With EoE from Ethernet to Ethercat

The master can then "tunnel" the Ethernet protocol via the EtherCAT protocol. This means that the Ethernet protocol is wrapped into the EtherCAT protocol and sent from the EtherCAT network to a specific Ethernet node via a switch port. Specifically, this means for Dunkermotoren that a Dunkermotor can be accessed via the Drive Assistant 5 without violating the existing topology with the defined master.

This enables the customer to run condition monitoring, analyze the engine or make remote adjustments. EoE makes all IIoT features conceivable in an EtherCAT network. EoE is available for all Dunkermotoren and external electronics of the dPro family with Industrial Ethernet from firmware version 24.01.0.
