Hi, It's a while ago now that I looked into it, but I originally had all sorts of problems with the dc clock system. I could never get my yaskawa amps stable using the PC clock as the time master. There is just way too much jitter. Instead I wrote the original patch that selects a slave to

Re: [etherlab-users] example code

Another thing you can look at is the ethercat slaves -v command. If you have a linear topology then the last slaves DC system time transmission delay value tells you how long it takes for a frame to get sent to it, so if you double the value you get the approximate round trip time. If you have

[etherlab-users] RTDM with RTAI

Hi, I've just been updating my project to use the latest EtherCAT 1.5.2 master (2526), using RTDM with RTAI. The ethercat_rtdm library calls fprintf to log various errors that may occur. This knocks the hard realtime thread back to soft realtime due to making a standard syscall. I have

Re: [etherlab-users] Copley Drive w/ Distributed Clocks Drifting

Hi, Just a couple of thoughts. Does GetNsecHWClock read the time from your servo card? Does the time increment by 25ns every period (ignoring jitter)? Ie is your clock time drifting with respect to the ISR? I would try moving the get time and ecrt_master_application_time call to just

Re: [etherlab-users] Failed to calculate bus topology

Hi, Get rid of the EL9010 terminator and use an EL9011 instead. The EL9011 is cheaper and as far as I can tell the EL9010 is no longer listed. In the meantime, just leave it off. The EtherCAT terminals do not require a terminator. The EL9011 is just a cover to provide protection for the
