Where can I find a manual and ESI file for VW3A3601 EtherCAT Module?

The VW3A3601 EtherCAT module can be used in several different drive products.

ATV32 - drive firmware must be V1.2 IE03 or higher. Option card firmware between V1.1 IE08 and 1.13 IE03. It is possible newer version option cards will work, but the ATV32 has been discontinued so additional testing to validate the newer version option cards has not been done.
ATV320 - Version 1.9 IE03 or higher (not currently compatible with ATV320 Solar.
ATV340 - Version 1.11 IE01 or higher
ATV900 - Version 1.08 IE05 or higher (not compatible when DPAC option is used)
ATV600 - NOT Compatible with the EtherCAT option card.

The EtherCAT option card manuals are specific to each drive family they are being installed in. See the following links:
