CCS/TMS320F28388D: Problem of when i use ControlCard's Ethercat with TwinCAT3

Part Number: TMS320F28388D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

i use 3 ControlCards(28388D) and i test ethercat with Twincat3

whenever i test ethercat, i use one ControlCard

first ControlCard's ethercat communication test is complete and not problem

but 2nd ControlCard test is fault

2nd ControlCard's Ethercat Fault LED(Red) and RUN LED (Green) is all Flashing

3rd ControlCard is same result

both ControlCard programed same Project, same EEPROM File.

this capture is error message

what can i do for solve this problem

  • Hello

    This is typically due to an EEPROM and application not matching configurations. Please double check that you are loading the appropriate EEPROM (performing device reset after this action) and the associated application. 

    What ethercat applications are you using? C2000Ware examples? Are they unmodified? 

    I can confirm that multiple 28388D controlcards work successfully on a network together.

    Best regards

  • hello thankyou for reply

    i use f2838x_cpu1_allocate_ecat_to_cm & f2838x_cm_echoback_solution 

    and using f2838x_cm_pdi_test_app.bin for eeprom

    1st ContorlCard programed that files, and 2nd ControlCard programed that files too

    but It's a problem at only 2nd ControlCard..

    Best regards

  • Hello,

  • Hello

    You using the incorrect EEPROM image. That is only for the initial setup and/or testing the PDI. You need to either use the ESI from the demo folder or the one generated from the SSC tool. It will be an XML file.

    Best regards

  • hello

    i solved this problem

    EEPROM file of Demo Folder is not problem

    but XML File is strange error when use SSC tool

    when i'm not delete / re-generate XML, this problem is remained.

    this problem is solved after deleted XML File / Re-generate XML

    thank you
