Dear Florian,

Thanks a lot for support.

The error was in the wrong Product ID used for the evalutation Board. 
We didn't see when switched the board from the 32 IO mode to the PIC mode that the Product ID was changed.
The sample program works fine either with or without configure the PDOs, as is written in the new mini.c sample program attached to this mail.

Now there is just a little bugs. If we register, with the function "ecrt_domain_reg_pdo_entry_list" just one PDO variable, we see the slave to go into a loop where the state changes from INIT, PREOP, SAFEOP, OP and SAFEOP + ERR. If we register at least two variables the bugs doesn't appear. We are preparing a more clear mail, with debug trace of this little bug.

Thanks.

Massimo Mancin.
