Hello,

Codesys IDE : 3.5.17.21
Master Ethercat : 3.5.17.0

When we need to disable/enable a Ethercat Slave by IEC code, the following code could be executed and works fine if we don't executed it on program startup :

// Disable Slavename.SlaveEnable := FALSE; // Enable Slavename.SlaveEnable := TRUE;

Why there is no auto-completion for this ?
Why it is not related in the Ethercat help ?

What are the tips or restrictions on using this code?

Thank you

👍
