<P style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA" lang=EN-CA><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>I have a Beckhoff EK1100 Bus Coupler with a EL6614 switch port. I am using Orchestra Suite on Ubuntu as the control computer with a network interface card with EtherCat drivers installed as a master. The idea is to access other devices on the Ethernet network connected on the EL6614 thru the EK1100 EtherCat Coupler. I succeeded to do so using Twincat on Windows but I need it to work on Linux (rev. 8.04) with Orchestra Designer v2.08.08 by Sintesi. <o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="mso-ansi-language: EN-CA" lang=EN-CA><FONT size=3><FONT face=Calibri>I would appreciate any advises or information for the configuration to be done on my setup (xmi & xmp files) and how to best use the Ethernet over EtherCat mailbox of the EL6614.<o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></SPAN></P>
