Introduction

On the 6015 PC, it is often supplied without EtherCAT drivers.

This tutorial describes how to install the drivers on a specific port to allow a "Device" to be found when scanning in a Visual Studio Project

Étape 1 - Scan Devices



Étape 2 - Check drivers

If you have I/O connected but do not see a device with (EtherCAT) then check that the drivers have been installed.



Étape 3 - Open the Network and Sharing Center



Étape 4 - Click Change Adapter Settings



Étape 5 - Check which is IO Port

The ethernet connection should be connected to the top port - this should display "Connected"

The I/O (EtherCAT) port should be the other one.

Rename this adaptor "EtherCAT"

Étape 6 - Run TcRteInstall.exe

Open file explorer and navigate to C:\TwinCAT\3.1\System and open TcRteInstall.exe



Étape 7 - Find Adaptor

You should see the relevant adapter (Whatever name you gave it in step5 - Ethernet 2 in this instance) under Compatible devices, select it and click the Install button.



Étape 8 - Wait for install

After a brief pause you should see the adapter move to Installed and ready to use devices



Étape 9 - Scan Devices again



Étape 10 - EtherCAT device now listed

you should now see an EtherCAT device in the new I/O found list
