I've heard about ethercat several times and i want to use it for my robot.
From this tutorial: forum.linuxcnc.org/27-driver-boards/3559...w-to-install?start=0
I succeded in building linuxcnc-ethercat but i dont know what to do next.
I'm having a XMC4800 board as a slave device. My wish that i can control this board by linuxcnc. Can anyone help me some basic steps to start.
