7.4 SII EEPROM MFC IO Block Parameter Map
This section describes the part of the EEPROM content and XML/ESI file that is used to configure the MFC
IO block.
MFC IO configuration data is automatically loaded at startup from EEPROM to the ESC Parameter RAM start-
ing at address 0x0580 of the the ESC register set. Therefore, this configuration data has to be of Category 1
.
When a Category 1 block is present in the EEPROM at address 0080h, the EEPROM configuration is auto-
matically loaded at power up of the TMC8462. It is used for setting up the basic TMC8462 EtherCAT related
features.
The configuration can later be changed via SPI access to the TMC8462 memory, the memory at address
0580h corresponds to the beginning of the category data at EEPROM address 0084h.
It can also be used to set up the features of the MFCIO block available via the process data ram. Typically,
the EEPROM content is unique to a specific slave application and does not change. The required MFCIO
functional blocks and their parameters are configured into the slave controllers RAM for use along with
Sync Managers.
Note
The EEPROM content starting at address 0084h to address 0103h (128 bytes) will
be loaded into the EtherCAT slave controllers parameter memory at address
range 0580h to 05FFh.
If the category is shorter than 128 bytes, only the amount of data specified by
’Category data size’ is copied with the remaining bytes being reset to 0.
