Hi Wilhelm,

Thanks for your support.


I've attached the result of the "ethercat sii_read -p1 | od" command.

  *   Anything relevant here ?


Yes, I've contacted the salve supplier. My request has been forwarded to the 
support team.

  *   I'm waiting for the answer.

Have a nice day
J-P

TwinCAT relies on the XML-Files and the IgH Ethercat master relies on
the SSI content. If the content is wrong or data is missing it will not
work.

Probably. Does "ethercat sii_read -p1 | od" work and if so could you
post the output of this command (assuming it is slave 1 you are
interested in)?

It most likely will be correct.

Some slaves simulate the SII content and can't be updated.

Most likely you will need to contact the supplier and ask for the
correction of the SII content. Suppliers sometimes tend to refuse to
cooperate and will say: "it works with TwinCat".

In that case the last step is to ask if the slave is checked against the
conformance test tool from ETG.
