<br>
Sorry, I misinterpreted your message. <br>
<br>
ecrt_slave_config_reg_pdo_entry can produce apparently
overlapping offsets when the PDO data is not on even bit
boundaries (not divisible by 8). <br>
<br>
You may wish to use the unsigned int *bit_position argument to
discover the bit offsets of your data.<br>

<div>Thanks for the reply. I am not using TwinCAT at all. Also,
please forgive my ignorance, but what is the "LRW command".</div>

<div>I'm not sure how to deal with this with the etherlab stack.
If it give me a domain offset of 3 for two different slices

In order to reduce process data size, TwinCAT overlaps
the RxPDO and TxPDO for each module, then uses the LRW
command to effect the transfer. So, I believe what you're
seeing is normal.<br>

Hi all,
I have written some code to parse the generated XML file from "ethercat xml" and use that to configure the ethercat stack. The problem I am having is the output from ecrt_slave_config_ret_pdo_entry produces overlapped offsets. I also tried using ecrt_slave_config_reg_pdo_entry_pos with the same results. This is a very simple test rig that has one each of DO, DI, AO, and AI slices - all beckhoff. I have attached a file which includes the generated XML file, the code in question, and the log output. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Best regards,
Steven Hartmann</pre>
