[etherlab-dev] foe_write result

[Gavin Lambert]

The "foe_write" ethercat command will print an error on stderr and return a
non-zero exit code in case of error.  It's intended to be used interactively
by whoever is commissioning the system, although it can be used in a script.

 

Alternatively if you want to call it programmatically you could use the
equivalent master ioctl call directly, which provides the specific FoE error
code.

 

The unofficial patchset also adds some additional ecrt.h APIs that you can
call for FoE, although these require more "plumbing" to use.

Hi,

 

I am working on file over ethercat (FOE) to send motor driver's
configuration file. From the ethercat 1.5.2 document, it looks like I can
use foe_write to send the file. However, I am just wondering that what I can
check to see whether the file transfer is successfully or not. 

 

Best regards,
