me it seems, 400 slaves is a lot and as they do not switch all at
the same time, but more one after the other, the number of slaves has a
direct impact on the amount of time it takes to come up.
Which kind of slaves are theese, btw?

Maybe change the design of your application. ;-)
But as we don't know what the purpose is, it's difficult to give any advice.

Is it possible to use more than one NIC?

We're successfully running in production, kernel version 2.6.29 with
ECMaster version 1.5. We're using the Intel 82573L Gigabit Ethernet
Controller (e1000e), with a little trick. I've already posted on this
list how it works, I think, could be the developers list though. ;)
would be very helpful.
You have to do the configuration with sdo requests.
See documentation for ecrt_slave_config_create_sdo_request(),
ecrt_sdo_request_write(), ecrt_sdo_request_state(), etc.

Any Card with an e1000 or e1000e chipset o
to
e1000.
In terms of the current version (1.5?), I've found it doesn't run
stable. EoE doesn't work, the box crashes within 15 up to 30 seconds if
a EoE enabled device is on the bus and I had some problems in releasing
the master, also with EoE enabled. Without EoE it seems to w
more.
But you could just take the rtai example which comes with the masters
source code. Yours should just work pretty exactly that way.

Erwin

settings on serial the interface
of that devices, which is 9600n81, as setting the configuration
works mostly but not all the time, but we need it at 100%.
As there are plans for using scanners which have to run at least with
115200 Baud, this will be a severe problem.

ating normal, but it
would be much better, if at least the slaves states are shown as OFFLINE
or something like that.
Unloading and reloading the realtime module works surprisingly too and
just for simple digital IO's there's no difference in having
her EoE operations seems not to be affected, but as it looks like a
bug, it might do.

The ec_* network driver modules do not work without the EtherCAT master
loaded. So the master itself would have to be part of the kernel fir
ow helpful though.

/dev/EtherCAT has Permission 644 instead of 600, and that works.
So I have to find the right udev rule, I suppose. ;-)

bly we've a transfer protocol similar to that the

I'll attach this last part of the syslog compressed with gzip, as it's
the whole run up of that two slaves with debug=1.
There's another strange warning in there, but maybe harmless:
