Going back to setting drive parameters, is there anyway to set ModParam with the generic cia402 driver, by addressing the required register directly and not using a 'named' parameter?

 

I'm back working on this, and have got the drive digital inputs working, however I'm back at needing to set a drive parameter, so is the above possible, or will I have to write a driver?

Generally, parameters are set in your xml file using SDO's/ I have found one device where it was more convenient to set these using ethercat upload and download commands outside of LinuxCNC
