Hallo takeshi ikeya, the SSI-contents (EEPROM) is broken. We had that up until now with two vendors.
> I saw other user's mail about YASKAWA SIGMA5, in which he said he couldn't > even get vendor ID and product code. Because of this we updated the Master Code. Now it is possible to read the first mandatory 64 words from the EEPROM which also contain vendor ID and product code. But the EtherLab-Master also needs at least the sync-manager information from the EEPROM. Please contact the vendor and point out, that there is a conformance test tool from the EtherCat technology group available to check if the slave meets the spezification. Every vendor shipping EtherCat slaves has to check his slaves against this tool. Ask for the test report of this tool for the particular slave you are using. This usually generates "enough pressure" on the vendor to improve the slave...
