> I do not configure pdos beause the slave does not support that according to the output given by "ethercat slaves":<br>
<br>
FWIW, this does not prevent you from configuring the PDOs (as far as the Etherlab code is concerned), it just means that the configuration that you specify must exactly match what the slave provides.  Essentially you are telling Etherlab what PDO content you are *expecting*.<br>
<br>
There are some advantages to doing this:<br>
<br>
 - If the slave turns out to have different content for some reason (eg. an incompatible previous or future version), you will get a clear error instead of getting corrupted data.<br>
 - The application can start before the network is actually online; once the slaves boot then they will automatically be configured and the application doesn't need to be restarted.  (Assuming that the app properly responds to the working counter or other incomplete/offline data indications, of course.)<br>
