Problems when using EtherCAT field buses
Symptom: The logi.CAD 3 application in which you are accessing the hardware IOs via EC-Engineer is returning one of the following errors:
The ECM_ACONTIS_ISCONNECTED block returns the value FALSE (or an equivalent).
The ECM_ACONTIS_CONNECTED_SLAVES block does not return the expected value.
Possible cause: When logi.RTS has been started, the EtherCAT bus scan has failed (e.g. because of a power loss at a slave).
Workaround:
Access the EtherCAT bus using a diagnostic too (e.g. →EC-Engineer).
Even if EC-Engineer is available on the same PC, always perform a remote diagnosis on port 6000.After the error has been fixed, the application must be re-loaded. Alternative: Restart llogi.RTS.
