<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have installed etherlab 2.1 successfully with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and rt preempt kernel 3.4.69. I am using command line tools and with only one slave Faulhaber motion controller mc 5005. I have installed most things using the bundle provided
in etherlab website. May I please get some guidance how I can handle the sdo data for the slave? Also how to use the ethercat xml command for the slave info? Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
