<p>Hi Graeme,</p>
<p>I connected a EK1100 bus coupler and a EL2008 digital output
card. The first slave is the EK1100, and my device stay at the
end.</p>
<p>I created two domains</p>
<p>Unfortunately the device still don't go to INIT.</p>
<p>Here, I put my test code and the dmesg output:</p>

log it looks like you’re using a single Read/Write domain.
I don’t recall if you mentioned, have tried putting it in
separate read and write domains? If you try this, also
ensure that there are at least two other separate read and
write domain slaves also configured in your system.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I’ve had
a few slaves in the past (generally with Texas Instruments
ESC’s) that work well with overlapped PDO’s in a single
Read/Write domain (TwinCat’s default method), but fail when
the PDO’s are not overlapped (EtherLab’s default). If this
is the case you can put them in separate read and write
domains to separate them within the EtherCat frame. But,
you need to ensure there’s a couple of other read and write
domain devices also configured to ensure there’s enough
separation in the frame.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I noticed, the correct path with option
is: "--enable-sii-override=/lib/firmware"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>This way, the master can find my ec_xxx.bin file. But still
at the end, slave doesn't respond to go INIT command.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Here is the dmesg output:<o:p></o:p></p>
