That’s exactly what I was getting at.
After their extensive testing, they can confirm that the driver works flawlessly.
Anyone who’s still having problems should take a closer look at their hardware. That’s why I brought this up and mentioned Beckhoff. All compatible chips are listed there, but unfortunately, few people know that.
Maybe I just didn’t express myself clearly.
Here’s my thinking.
Many people already have EtherCAT up and running successfully.
We could collect the hardware information and put it in a wiki.
System requirements:
>PC, network card, cable, EMC filter
>Configuration examples
>Troubleshooting tips
>Explanation of individual functions
That would help many new users get up to speed on the madness of EtherCAT
before they flood the forum with the same questions over and over.
I can’t do that myself. When I start a thread like that, it disappears into oblivion really fast.
Only the admins can do that
