<div>Hi Graeme,<br>
<br>
</div>
I think that 1) and 2) was done correctly in my case.<br>
</div>
For 3), I'll check dmesg.<br>
</div>
For 4), I found the thread in 2013:<br>
<a href="http://lists.etherlab.org/pipermail/etherlab-users/2013/002074.html" target="_blank" id="LPlnk849848" previewremoved="true">http://lists.etherlab.org/<wbr>pipermail/etherlab-users/2013/<wbr>002074.html</a><br>
</div>
But I can't get the attachment since I'm not in the etherlab-user mail list.<br>
</div>
Is there any other way to get the attachment?<br>
<br>
</div>
Thank you for your response.<br>
Best regards - Erix Chou<br>

<p>I can think of four possible errors at the moment:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>1) Your ethercat configuration file isn't matching the correct MAC address.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>In /etc/sysconfig/ethercat you have "<span>MASTER0_DEVICE="ff:ff:ff:ff:<wbr>ff:ff"". ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff matches the first available device, looking at devices in the order the drivers are loaded (in the <span>DEVICE_MODULES key)</span>. So you may have
sepecified a MAC address that is not matching your device</span></p>
<p><span><br>
</span></p>
<p><span><br>
</span></p>
<p><span>2) You are not loading your device module.</span></p>

</span></p>
<p><span><span style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px">In /etc/sysconfig/ethercat you have "</span><span>DEVICE_MODULES=". This specifies the network driver modules (ethercat versions) that you want to run (space delimited list).
You should put your module first in the list if you use a generic MAC address (ie: <span style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px">ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) in the setting above.</span></span><br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<br>
<br>
First appreciate the implement of etherlabmaster.<br>
I'm devolping a non-native supported ethernet device to be able to work as a RTDM EtherCAT master.<br>
What the device is one part of TI AM335x SoC and is named "cpsw".<br>
Everything smoothly while adapting driver code, building module file, and installing.<br>
But I was stuck by a problem when I try to start EtherCAT master.<br>
Following is my steps and message shown by dmesg:<br>
<br>
# /etc/init.d/ethercat start<br>

Could anyone kindly advice what is the key point to go forword form "waiting device"?<br>
