device2008(8-port fast ether switch)0000(basic type)0000NotesThe elements mentioned above result in the technical designation.EL3314-0000-0016 is used in theexample below.EL3314-0000 is the order identifier,in the case of "-0000"usually abbreviated to EL3314."-0016"is theEtherCAT revision.The order identifier is made up of-family key (EL,EP,CU,ES,KL,CX,etc.)-type(3314)version (-0000)The revision-0016 shows the technical progress,such as the extension of features with regard to theEtherCAT munication,and is managed by Beckhoff.In principle,a device with a higher revision can replace a device with a lower revision,unless specifiedotherwise,e.g.in the documentation.Associated and synonymous with each revision there is usually a description(ESI,EtherCAT SlaveInformation)in the form of an XML file,which is available for download from the Beckhoff web site.From 2014/01 the revision is shown on the outside of the IP20 terminals,see Fig."EL5021 EL terminal,standard IP20 lO device with batch number and revision ID(since 2014/01)".The type,version and revision are read as decimal numbers,even if they are technically saved inhexadecimal.Beckhoff EtherCAT devices from the different lines have different kinds of identification numbers:Production lot/batch number/serial number/date code/D numberThe serial number for Beckhoff IO devices is usually the 8-digit number printed on the device or on a sticker.The serial number indicates the configuration in delivery state and therefore refers to a whole productionbatch,without distinguishing the individual modules of a batch.Structure of the serial number:KK YY FF HHKK-week of production(CW,calendar week)YY-year of productionFF-firmware versionHH-hardware versionEL500xVersion:3.79ForewordBECKHOFFExample
