I'm working on a RunTime Plc (Codesys 3.5.16/18.20) connected to an EtherCat bus&lt;br/&gt;
with many devices.&lt;br/&gt;
The bus has some communication fault but I don't know how understand which is the &lt;br/&gt;
device or the cable that has the trouble.&lt;br/&gt;
To understand the cause of the problem I would like to read the WKC (Working counter) of&lt;br/&gt;
the devices (0x0300...0x030C), how is explained in EtherCat documents, but it seems that the read of &lt;br/&gt;
the counter is disabled.&lt;br/&gt;
Attached there is an extract of the Ethercat document.&lt;br/&gt;
Can anyone give me some advice about how and with function can I read it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you in advance!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary></entry></feed>
