The device description generated by the master contains only basic
information an can not be complete, because no all of the information
can be queried from the slave. Moreover the generated XML contains PDO
information read from the SDO dictionary.

If you are looking for the PDOs currently available, have a look at
'ethercat pdos', they are the same as in the generated XML file.
