Hello,

I paste below a table from Diamond’s list of ethercat supported modules.

We have more experience with some models and less with others. For example, even though the EL1502 is listed, I am not aware of it being used in our facility.

 

There are two sections, the DIN rail modules (EL and EK prefix) and the box IO modules (EP prefix).

 

Regarding the template that you mention, gadc stands for “generic adc”, not gated adc.

There is some documentation here

http://controls.diamond.ac.uk/downloads/support/ethercat/4-3/documentation/doxygen/generic_adc.html

 

We don’t currently have gating or triggering for these modules.

 

Regards,

 

Ronaldo
