Hello!
Please help with one thing - is there any way to get extended info about master and slave states or diagnose comm.link errors?
I've read OnlineHelp (core_EtherCAT_Configuration_Editor.chm) and this Forum FAQ. Having the following hardware - PLC (QNX+Codesys Runtime) and IO-modules of own design - i'm testing the whole system.
So I can detect the moment when EtherCAT is configured OK (xConfigFinished), restart the master (xRestart) or stop it (xStopBus), enumerate slave modules
i can get the current state of the slave (wState) or may try to switch it to OP mode
But how can i get some more statistics about frames (sent/errors) and read register's data and port's states from slaves? like f.e offers it:
What is the difference between demo and licensed EtherCAT master? Sources? Technical support?
Would lib help me with it?
BR, Eugene

thanks for reproting this, I have added an improvement in our Improvement/tracking database.

Would "CAA Device Diagnosis" lib help me with it?
a) EthercatMaster in demo runs unlicensed for 30min
b) which sources do you need - reading SDO example is available in Ethercat Store maybe we need to extend this example for the diagnosis functions - would be helpful
b) CAA Device Diagnosis is generic fieldbus Independent for all the same interface
