hi this is Carlo from Roll to roll Technologies and in this video I'm gonna show you how to add a su-5 controller into a backoff automation system with green cards here is my setup I have my industrial PC over here where I set the one of the parts to be either cut master and I connected this industrial PC directly to my su-5 over here and I can see into the settings in the communication setting I have a either cut version of the su-5 and because it's a either system I don't have IP address of setup mask or Gateway I will only have the Mac address over here first step we were gonna head to our website r2r.tech and download the ESI file for the su5 I'm gonna go into resources documentation and then support file and I'm gonna look for the ethercat file I'm gonna do right click and save link as and I'm gonna choose the directory when I want to save my file and do save and gonna go file was saved now I have to copy this file into the proper directory so I'm gonna copy this and go PC twin cut 3.1 this is my version configuration config IO either cut and I will pass that in this directory then I'm gonna go and Open my cut software and I will go into twin cut ER cut devices and do reload device description at this point there are two ways to add the SEO 5 to your io3 one way is to go over here in your either Cuts Master right click and do scan with scan for new devices and here I have the roll to roll device by doing this procedure you will have all the register a very descriptive name but just with the register number we this is a way to do it but we will suggest to add it by using the ESI file that we just downloaded so you will go here into your ethercat master and add a new item search for the role to roll technology category and add the su-5 by doing so you will have variable there are much more descriptive but for the input and for the output and now once we have done this if you do go back to the internet eater Cuts master and do the scan it will recognize the device and if you toggle this button to show online data you can go in and verify that the connection is present for example if I look at the left edge of the sensor and do the online data when I pass something in front of the sensor the listening become bit I see the data updating the show me that I have a good connection to the SEO 5 and then you can link the variable to your program and you're good to go and this was all I have for today's video if you are interested to our video subscribe Below have a good day
