Address of the EtherCAT station alias (ADO 0x0012) is not set

What happens? 
On the 'General' tab of an EtherCAT slave, additional functions can be enabled by setting the option 'Expert Settings', including the configuration of the station alias (ADO 0x0012). 
However, when the corresponding button <Write to EEPROM> is pressed, the address in the EtherCAT slave is not adopted.

When does the behaviour occur? 
The function <Write to EEPROM> for setting an station alias address when using modular machine configurations (MMC) is not supported.

Which products are affected?
PLC Designer from V3.18

Short-term measures:
When using the modular machine configuration, use the function block 'L_ETC_MMCAssignAddress' to set the 'Second Station Address' in the EtherCAT slave as an alternative.
 
Evaluation/Recommendations:
The dialogues in the PLC Designer for setting a station alias are not supported by the Lenze controllers. Function blocks are available for the use of modular machine configuration ('Optional EtherCAT devices').
