<div dir="ltr"><div>Hello everyone, </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the response, But I still have some questions.</div><div><br></div><div>The development environment I use is CentOS 6 (with kernel 2.6.18-371.e15), Igh-1.4.0 and display on VMware player(I wonder if it's feasible by using VMware player?)</div>
<div>Also, I followed Ethercat-1.4.0-pre.pdf chapter 9's steps, everything was fine (I can got EtherCAT master 1.4.0 done message), but there still are some questions: </div><div><br></div><div>1. In CentOS I can not use "insserv ethercat", so I used "chkconfig --add ethercat" to start the service, are these two commands do the same thing?</div>
<div><br></div><div>2. I copied /opt/etherlab/etc/sysconfig/ethercat to /etc/sysconfig/ethercat, and edited ethercat file like the following,</div><div><br></div><div> MASTER0_DEVICE="ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff"</div>
<div> DEVICE_MODULES="8139too"</div><div><br></div><div> but I am confused that what is the rule to choose the correct "DEVICE_MODULES"? </div><div> Does it depend on something? or should I choose "generic"?</div>
<div> (By the way, If I chose e1000 or e100, the message would say fail, so I chose 8139too.)</div><div><br></div><div>3. If I use VMware player to install IGH-EtherCAT, what are the additional steps should I do?</div><div>
(Ex: set the virtual network card)</div><div><br></div><div>4. When I command "/etc/init.d/ethercat status", the shell said "Master0 running".</div><div> However, when I command "/opt/etherlab/bin/ethercat master"</div>
<div> the shell said</div><div><br></div><div> Master0</div><div> Phase: Idle</div><div> Active: no</div><div> Slaves: 0</div><div> Ethernet devices:</div><div> Main: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff (attached)</div>
