[Etherlab-users] "Master0 dead" and unable to check fro masters/slaves

[Mike O'Connor]

Hi Henrik

The tool are not found because there not in your path, I think from the 
details you provided there at /usr/local/share/etherlab/sbin/
so try
ls /usr/local/share/etherlab/sbin/
and if there is a ethercat in there run it via

/usr/local/share/etherlab/sbin/ethercat master

Cheers
Mike
