Hello,



1 - PROBLEM:
I am trying to set-up a Ethercat fieldbus using Etherlab as master and a Wago 750-354 as a slave. However, all info I get from the Wago slave is null. I am almost sure there is something wrong here.

Here are some screenshoots:

#sudo /etc/init.d/ethercat start
Starting EtherCAT master 1.5.1  done

#sudo /etc/init.d/ethercat status
Checking for EtherCAT master 1.5.1
Master0  running

#/opt/etherlab/bin/ethercat slave
0  0:0  INIT  E  0x00000000:0x00000000

#/opt/etherlab/bin/ethercat xml
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<EtherCATInfo>
  <!-- Slave 0 -->
  <Vendor>
    <Id>0</Id>
  </Vendor>

    <Devices>
      <Device>
        <Type ProductCode="#x00000000" RevisionNo="#x00000000"></Type>
      </Device>
    </Devices>
  </Descriptions>
</EtherCATInfo>



2 - SYSTEM
#uname -a
Linux dfb-laptop 2.6.31-11-rt #154-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT Wed Jun 9 12:28:53 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux



3 - INSTALLATION
#./configure --enable-cycles --enable-generic
#make
#make modules

# sudo make install
# sudo make modules install
# sudo depmod

#cd /opt/etherlab
#cp etc/sysconfig/ethercat /etc/sysconfig/
#ln -s /opt/etherlab/etc/init.d/ethercat /etc/init.d/
#insserv ethercat

Then, I configure /etc/sysconfig/ethercat with
MASTER0_DEVICE="00:15:58:31:5e:7c
DEVICE_MODULES="generic"



Does anyone know what I am doing wrong that I can not read correctly my slave device?
