User can add additional objects to PDO Output mapping 0x16FF and the Input PDO mapping 0x1AFF.

Example 0x16FF with EC-Engineer:

To add the parameters Pressure Ramp Slope and Mode in addition to the standard buffer (0x1601) in the configurable PDO buffer (0x16FF) following steps are necessary:

Mapping object | Mapping content
0x16FF | USINT8 FLOAT | Pressure Ramp Mode Pressure Ramp Slope

•In EC engineer the mapping of the configuration is done in Configuration Mode

•Select output buffer 0x16FF “Outputs User 1” and click “Edit” button

•Press “Add” to add a new object:

•Select object 0x2F01:01 “Pressure Ramp Slope” and press ok

•Press again “Add” and select 0x2F01:02 “Pressure Ramp Mode”. Now the two additional objects should be added to 0x16FF:

Change in Diagnose Mode and change state to OP

oNow this parameters are visible within the Variables tab.

•Save master project to load this configuration on another device.
