Philipp, You should look at the ethernet-based system Peter Wallace created for the Mesa cards. The FPGA firmware and drivers for the Mesa system is open source. The 7I92 or 7I80DB should have some code examples you can look at.

But since I'm mainly interested in the slave part, things are not that easy: Their slave sample code is for a microncontroller interfacing the EtherCAT-ASIC, so they're just making their money somewhere else ;) Thanks, Philipp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
