[etherlab-users] EtherCat EL3102 (Jayson Ding)

[Jayson]

Fixed this bug for a couple of days. Sorry for updating it until now.

The bug turned out to be typo.
Open Etherlab model library under 
.../opt/etherlab/rtw/blocks/etherlab_lib.mdl as text. You do open it in 
matlab or other editor.
 >> replace *line 731* EtherCATInfo_el*3xxx* to EtherCATInfo_el*31xx
*The bug is fixed. By the way, I also changed line 724 'EL3102' hex2dex( 
0C1E3052) based on my setting. But I do not think it affects. You can 
give it a try.
Do not forget to close and reload etherlab lib each time when you made 
modification.
 >> bdclose etherlab_lib
 >> etherlab_lib
Enjoy your Analoy input terminal.
