Yes, you would need two NICs
 

Hello 
I have managed to get a few motors running with etherCAT, but I still need a simple I/O system with analog out and encoder input, to use a mesa THCAD.

How is it feasible? Do I need a dual Ethernet card? 
The PCs I’m using have a single Ethernet port, so to run both mesa and ethercat I will need another Ethernet system, to have different NICs, right?

thank you.
