Dear Samiha,

[Samiha Islam]

Hello,
I was a bit confused so as to how to modify the SDO data for the 'ethrcat
xml' command. I am concerned that the commands 'ethercat config' and
'ethercat domain' yields nothing. I am working on a modified version of the
'user' example for my slave. It contains the cyclic task.
So the PDO cyclic control loop only works in OP state? Not in PREOP? Do I
change the state and then run the code?

Thank you!
Samiha

If you just want to test reading/writing SDO data in PREOP, you can use the 
download and upload commands of the ethercat command line tool.

To actually bring the slave to OP state and get it to do anything interesting, 
however, you have to write an application with a PDO cyclic control loop; it’s 
not possible to keep a slave in OP from the command line alone.

The “ethercat xml” command is not particularly useful.  What are you imagining 
that you might want to use it for?

Hello,
I have installed etherlab 2.1 successfully with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and rt preempt 
kernel 3.4.69. I am using command line tools and with only one slave Faulhaber 
motion controller mc 5005. I have installed most things using the bundle 
provided in etherlab website. May I please get some guidance how I can handle 
the sdo data for the slave? Also how to use the ethercat xml command for the 
slave info? Thanks.

With regards,
Samiha Islam
