Anybus CAN - EtherCAT AB7311-B

Hello,

I am using Anybus CAN - EthertCAT module, with Beckhoff controller.
I have set the configuration on the anybus, and scanned the device with success on the controller.

However, when I assign a tag from the controller to the anybus, the anybus goes into “Idle” mode and with an error in LED 5.
Why is this happening? Am I missing some setup?

Regards Benjamin
