Firmware and hardware versions
This documentation refers to the firmware and hardware version that was applicable at the time the
documentation was written.
The module features are continuously improved and developed further. Modules having earlier production
statuses cannot have the same properties as modules with the latest status. However, existing properties
are retained and are not changed, so that older modules can always be replaced with new ones.
The firmware and hardware version (delivery state) can be found in the batch number (D-number) printed on
the side of the EtherCATBox.
Syntax of the batch number (D-number)
D: WW YY FF HH
WW - week of production (calendar week)
YY - year of production
FF - firmware version
HH - hardware version
Example with D no. 29 10 02 01:
29 - week of production 29
10 - year of production 2010
02 - firmware version 02
01 - hardware version 01
Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC)
The Beckhoff Identification Code contains additional information about the delivery state of the module:

2 Product overview
2.1 EtherCAT Box - Introduction
The EtherCAT system has been extended with EtherCAT Box modules with protection class IP67. Through
the integrated EtherCAT interface the modules can be connected directly to an EtherCAT network without an
additional Coupler Box. The high-performance of EtherCAT is thus maintained into each module.
The extremely low dimensions of only 126x30x26.5 mm (hxw xd) are identical to those of the Fieldbus
Box extension modules. They are thus particularly suitable for use where space is at a premium. The small
mass of the EtherCAT modules facilitates applications with mobile I/O interface (e.g. on a robot arm). The
EtherCAT connection is established via screened M8connectors.
Fig.1: EtherCAT Box Modules within an EtherCAT network
The robust design of the EtherCAT Box modules enables them to be used directly at the machine. Control
cabinets and terminal boxes are now no longer required. The modules are fully sealed and therefore ideally
prepared for wet, dirty or dusty conditions.
Pre-assembled cables significantly simplify EtherCAT and signal wiring. Very few wiring errors are made, so
that commissioning is optimized. In addition to pre-assembled EtherCAT, power and sensor cables, field-
configurable connectors and cables are available for maximum flexibility. Depending on the application, the
sensors and actuators are connected through M8 or M12connectors.
The EtherCAT modules cover the typical range of requirements for I/O signals with protection class IP67:
• digital inputs with different filters (3.0ms or 10μs)
• digital outputs with 0.5 or 2A output current
• analog inputs and outputs with 16bit resolution
• Thermocouple and RTD inputs
• Stepper motor modules
XFC (eXtreme Fast Control Technology) modules, including inputs with time stamp, are also available.

2.2 EP9224-0037 - Introduction
Fig.4: EP9224-0037
EP9224-0037
The EP9224-0037 EtherCAT Box distributes an EtherCAT signal to four EtherCATP ports.
It measures supply voltages, output currents and its own temperature. The measured values are available as
process data.
Internal protective functions use the measured values to switch off the output voltages of the EtherCATP
ports in case of error. This prevents damage and malfunctions:
• Overloading of the supply line
• Overloading of the power supply unit
• Overloading of the EtherCATP cables
• Undervoltage of the supply voltages
EP9224-0037 has a peak value detector and a data logger for the diagnosis of errors.
