With intermediate frames it doesn’t work. The commando tool can send register writes (ethercat reg_write) but these will drop in a register queue and cannot be send in 3 consecutive frames. I have tried to make a small EtherCAT master application, but first of all there is no public interface for sending a register read or write (ecrt.h). Secondly I tried to make a setup where I only did send the etherCAT train after each ‘ethercat reg_write …’ but this did not work at all. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Does anyone succeeded in resetting a ESC? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Is it possible to send 3 </span><span lang=EN-US>consecutive</span><span lang=EN-US> ETherCAT frames from the public interface (ecrt.h), in anyway?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>If we need to make an additional reset interface , how to control the 3 </span><span lang=EN-US>consecutive</span><span lang=EN-US> register write ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Any help is highly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Med venlig hilsen/Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Xtel<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Martin Jørgensen<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Alfred Nobels Vej 21E<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>9220 Aalborg Ø<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Direct: +4572146686<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mobil: +4525381054<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
