[etherlab-users] Generic slave (unknown device) configuration

[Mladen Knezic]

Hello all,

I'm trying to configure EtherCAT Slave Evaluation Kit EL9820 to work with
EtherLab software suite. I want to use EtherLab Matlab real-time code
generator to configure and access Evaluation Kit over the Generic Slave block
in Simulink. My question is: how to access process data in Evaluation Kit (as
a slave device configured to work over the PIC-SPI interface with Beckhoff
SSC) in Simulink? As far as I can see Generic Slave Block has no interface,
and only configuration (by means of XML) can be set in this block. I'm sorry
if this is the newbie annoying question, but there is lack of information
provided for Generic Slave block (in Help entry there is no information) in
EtherLab documentation.

Regards,
