[etherlab-users] DC problems

[Andreas Stewering-Bone]

Hello,

DC is a little bit more difficult than normal io.

First there are some questions:

- Which Realtime Subsystem do you use? (RTAI, Xenomai, Preempt)
- Which CPU do you use?
- Which NIC driver do you use?
- Which etherlab master version do you use?
- What is your system latency? (RTAI/testsuite)
- Which slave do you want to use?

About OP State

try to set

ethercat debug 1

and start your application and post the dmesg output.

Best regards

Andreas
