Hi Carlo, acontis EC-Master has a Linux version (also a TI-RTOS version) that you can try. Linux version works on top of Linux RT PSDK 4.02 (software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html).

You can run EC-Master on CPSW Eth interface or PRU-ICSS EMAC.

Please follow EC-Master_ClassB.pdf documentation

EC-Master for TI processors download page: www.acontis.com/.../ethercat-for-ti-processors.html

In case of questions you can post them here, or ask directly acontis (ecsupport@acontis.com)

hope this helps,
Paula

Carlo, is Linux a requirement? if not, and TI-RTOS can be used I created a how-to video for AM5728 IDK, but most of the steps are the same for AM3359 ICEv2 board.

If Linux is a requirement, please check EC-Master_ClassB.pdf, mainly search for "TI" "CPSW" and/or "PRU" key words in order to navigate to the main sections. EC-Master_ClassB.pdf can looks a little bit intimidating but it has (or should have) in a concise way all the information you need for building/running EC-Master on Sitara AM335x with Linux PSDK.

Thank you,

Paula
