5 Configuration
5.1 Supported Size of the Process Data
The gateway component for EtherCAT supports an input and output
area of 512 bytes each:
NOTICE
Bear in mind that the maximum length of the process data is always
determined by the fieldbus with the shorter data length.
Example:
EtherCAT supports 512 bytes
PROFIBUS supports 488 bytes
In conjunction with EtherCAT / PROFIBUS this means that 488 bytes
are transmitted and updated cyclically.
