Hello everybody!

I am trying to build an etherlab-application based on the user-example. I modified the source code for my bus configuration. After compiling and running the program I received the following output:

Configuring PDOs...
Activating master...
Starting timer...
Started.
5 slave(s).
AL states: 0x02.
Link is up.
Domain1: WC 1.
Domain1: State 1.
Domain1: WC 4.
Domain1: WC 5.
Domain1: WC 6.
Domain1: State 2.
AL states: 0x08.
Domain1: WC 0.
Domain1: State 0.
Domain1: WC 6.
Domain1: State 2.
Domain1: WC 0.
Domain1: State 0.
Domain1: WC 6.
Domain1: State 2.

The program works, the digital outputs are blinking/toggleing. I paid attention to the domain working counter- and state changes. This messages appear when the program is running a few seconds. The kernel logs showed the following messages:

tux@terminal:~$ sudo dmesg -c
[29842.462777] EtherCAT 0: Domain 0: Working counter changed to 0/6.
[29842.752788] EtherCAT WARNING: Datagram f73b59c0 (domain0-0) was SKIPPED 2 times.
[29843.076180] EtherCAT WARNING 0: 1 datagram UNMATCHED!
[29843.472786] EtherCAT 0: Domain 0: Working counter changed to 6/6.
tux@terminal:~$ sudo dmesg -c
[29855.462831] EtherCAT 0: Domain 0: Working counter changed to 0/6.
[29855.882832] EtherCAT WARNING: Datagram f73b59c0 (domain0-0) was SKIPPED 2 times.
[29856.084222] EtherCAT WARNING 0: 1 datagram UNMATCHED!
[29856.472779] EtherCAT 0: Domain 0: Working counter changed to 6/6.

Here some infos about the system: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with Kernel 2.6.31.6 and PREEMPT patch but same warnings also appear on a system without RT PREEMPT.
etherlab version info:
tux@terminal:~$ sudo /opt/etherlab/bin/ethercat version
IgH EtherCAT master 1.5.1 0f7a243b03e4

I can imagine there are timing problems because program is working and the messages appear irregular. On the other side, EtherCAT is a real-time capable system but does not require real-time, isn't it? Can you tell me what's wrong in the program or what is the reason for warnings?

Below you can see the program.

Best Regards,
Marcel
