That's the point to research.

thanks for help.
but I searched over here and in internet and still and I could not figure out what is the cause or remedy of this problem. I used the example xml file by sascha, so where is the mistake?

one more question too: Am I supposed to be connected online to all devices that are defined in xml file during start up of linuxcnc with hal driver?? may be this what causes error ?

Which xml file by sascha is that?

before starting the threads of the HAL script?

also if you use less slaves?

AL status code 0x002E is indeed unknown.

Besides all that:

0055-fsm_slave_config_scan-to-fsm_slave.patch
...
The motivating case was a network of about 100 slave devices; while scanning
is fast (under a second, after prior SII patches), the configuration process
to bring the slaves from PREOP to OP took about 80 seconds (and you could
see the lights coming on each slave in sequence). After the patch it takes
about 20 seconds.

No, I get that after start HAL script.

currently EK1100 coupler, but I did not connect it during starting of linuxcnc , because i was thinking that xml file will be used to check the slaves when I press "run" button in linuxcnc gui.
