I have KUKA KR120 R2500 pro with magnet. I want to set $OUT to this magnet but I have only EK1100 with profibus master/slave. What is the easiest way to control the magnet without purchising Beckhoff?
you need an I/O module (or just output module). it can be either ProfiBus version (then you need to setup ProfiBus too) or plain one - just add it to the side of existing modules.
in both cases you will need to use WorkVisual to adapt configuration and map I/O
