Hello Richard,
Yes I have added the product code and revision numbers in the xml and in the
generic block mask in Simulink.
EL6692
The command below shows all my pdo, whereas ethercat -p9 pdo only shows TxPDO.
Why are the two commands showing me such different information?
Best Regards,
Jasper
Hi
I watched that discussion about the need for a API to wait (poll) for
received frames. I still don't get it why that is nessessary.
Here is a clarification of how ethercat (process data transfer) works:
- Process Data should be regarded as idempotent states, which means it
doesn't matter how
Ian,
your view is true for single core CPUs ... if you have a multi core CPU
you can assign a single core for polling of incoming frames.
I'm planning to use Intel's DPDK as a networking base for EtherCAT ...
it's time to get rid of the dependency to kernel versions.

This is going to be repetition of some very old discussion.
First, to answer Jeroen: yes, what holds me from just calling
ecrt_master_receive as a kind of poll is that it doesn't provide me with an
answer to the following question: "Has all the packets of the domain
arrived yet?". The whole point
Sometime the issue is that etherCAT master loop does not need and should
not be running as tight as possible, because the computer needs to do
also some other tasks. But at the same time, the master needs to react
to slave data as quickly as possible. So master initiates transaction
with fake/n

Exactly!!! Thank you Shahbaz for great summary and reiteration.
And even more useful than function ecrt_domain_received() that would
need to be polled, seems to me or ecrt_master_receive() that would block
and wait till data are available or any kind of asynchronous
notification "data are avai
Is there anything holding you from just calling ecrt_master_receive() early
as a kind of poll ?
I'm just wondering if the need for receipt notification would e.g. arise
when someone would send an EtherCAT frame A for gathering data and, as soon
as that frame returns, do some calculations and send
