If you are not able to find the objects you want to use in a Scope Project, it is most likely the ADS Server is not enabled for the EtherCAT Device.

Double Click on 'Image' under EtherCAT Master and go to 'ADS' tab. Check the 'Enable ADS Server' and 'Create symbols' options and note the 'Port' number. Then activate the configuration.

Right click on the scope project and select Target Browser.

Click the edit 'ADS extension settings' icon.

Type the port number and click 'Add'. Check the port number you just added in the list and click Ok.

Now you can browse the objects under that port number.
