TDA4VM: CODESYS EtherCAT master with ethfw

Fabian

Part Number: TDA4VM

Tool/software:

Hello,

according to AM6442: Sitara Webinar Series: Using Codesys Control on Sitara AM64x RT Linux for PLC controller stacks - Processors forum - Processors - TI E2E support forums, the TDA4VM can be used as an EtherCAT master in CODESYS.

Does this only apply to the Native Linux driver or would this also work using the ethfw?

Hi,

It was developed and validated for Native linux driver only. I am not entirely sure if there is a hard no for having the CODESYS master with ethfw. Let me check on this internally and get back to you early next week.

Hi,

Based on my initial discussions, It seems that it is not supported on the ethfw. But I am still waiting for final confirmation on this.

Hi,

CODESYS master with ethfw should be theoretically possible. But TI has not tried this and will not be able to support this.
