<html><head></head><body><div>Dear Anson,</div><div><br></div><div>For most EtherCAT slaves you will not be able to set any output via console. Reason is a PDO timeout, for Beckhoff slaves I think 500ms. If there is no update in this time, the slave will go back to its failsafe state.</div><div><br></div><div>You will have to write an c or cpp programm.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Best regards</div><div><br></div><div>Andreas</div><div><br></div><div>Am Donnerstag, dem 20.04.2023 um 20:51 +0530 schrieb Anson Paul:</div><blockquote type="cite" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex; border-left:2px #729fcf solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi All,<div>I am new to this IGH Ethercat master thing.</div><div>I am using</div><div>Ubuntu 20.04 5.4 kernel</div><div>rt preempt_kernel version is 5.4.69-rt39</div><div>NIC-e1000</div><div>IGH ethercat master-1.5.2 334c34cfd2e5 version</div><div>I am using slaves of beckhoff modules</div><div>1.EK1100 Coupler</div><div>2.EL1008 Digital Input</div><div>3.EL2008 Digital Output</div><div><br></div><div><div>Igh master was up when running the command</div></div><div><b> sudo /etc/init.d/ethercat restart</b><span style="background-color:rgb(244,245,247);color:rgb(23,43,77);font-family:SFMono-Medium,"SF Mono","Segoe UI Mono","Roboto Mono","Ubuntu Mono",Menlo,Consolas,Courier,monospace;font-size:12px"><br></span></div><div><div>Igh master was able to detect the slaves </div><div>when running </div><div> <b>ethercat master</b></div></div><div><b> ethercat slaves</b></div><div>I wanted to run Blink the digital output Led in EL2008 digital output</div><div>I was able to run the <b>ethercat cstruct -p2</b> and got the pdos available in the Digital output module.<br></div><div>Are there any terminal commands available to blink the led?</div><div><br></div><div>I have got a reference giving the cpp code on how to do that </div><div><a href="https://www.mailarchive.com/etherlabusers@etherlab.org/msg03184.html" target="_blank">https://www.mailarchive.com/etherlabusers@etherlab.org/msg03184.html</a><br></div><div>Can anyone guide me how i can run this cpp program or the programs given in the examples/user/main.c?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance,</div><div><br></div><div>Anson</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div><span></span></div></body></html>
