Hello everyone. I can't consistently run a very simple EtherLab RTAI code <https://github.com/mohse-n/L7N_EtherLab/blob/master/rtai/rtai_sample.c> with distributed clocks at more than about 100 Hz! If I increase the frequency, I usually get the EtherCAT error: *AL status message 0x0032: "PLL error <https://infosys.beckhoff.com/english.php?content=../content/1033/ethercatsystem/1072494091.html&id=>".* Basically, the higher the frequency, the higher the likelihood of receiving this error. I don't think the cause of this problem is on the RTAI side as the RTAI latency test while the module executes shows a maximum latency of less than 20 microseconds. The weird thing is, I can run the same straightforward cyclic task in userspace <https://github.com/mohse-n/L7N_EtherLab/blob/master/user/main.c>(with non-rt kernel no less) at 3 KHz, with no skipped frames. I expect the RTAI performance to be way better-not much worse-than userspace code. Best, Mohsen
