Hi, Everyone

I have a question about AM437x for EtherCAT and Motor control.

I want to make software for EtherCAT and Motor control.
and see this Application note.

www.ti.com/.../tidu800.pdf

but It is based on ISDK.
Actually I should make these combining program from ProcessorSDK for AM437x.

and This Framework need to get and change EtherCAT Stack.

I already download. ProcessorSDK-RTOS-AM437x and PRU-ICSS-Industrial_Drives, PRU-ICSS-EtherCAT_Slave.

and It work Independently

(1)Do We need to modify EtherCAT Stack when I make combining program from ProcessorSDK
(2)Can you tell me how to make if you have a solution ?

Best Regards

Hi Hiroyasu
I am sorry that the EtherCAT motor control example was not carried over from the SYSBIOS Industrial SDK. Without an example it will be difficult to validate and communicate the necessary changes to implement this solution. We have created a request to add the EtherCAT motor control example to the PRU-ICSS Industrial SDK. It would be good to mention this need and business case to your TI Representative so that this information is included in the consideration for this request.
