Dear All,
Hi, I'm using an IDK AM437x from TI, and I want to test the ethercat_slave_full_AM437x_arm application on my device.
I downloaded and installed the Beckhoff source stack code, and I followed the instructions on http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-industrial-sw/esd/docs/indsw/EtherCAT_Slave/01_00_07/PRU_ICSS_EtherCAT.html#running-ethercat-slave-application .
First I tried the ethercat_slave_demo and it worked, with that application I can change the LED on the device.
Than I tried ethercat_slave_full_AM437x_arm, it compile without errors, I loaded it on the device and run the application, but when I use TwinCAT (v. 3) It would recognize the device without see the Box to toggle LEDS.
The device in the latter case remains in INIT state, while in the demo application runs in OP state.
I had generated the source files with SSC tool and copied them in
[install_path]\protocols\ethercat_slave\ecat_appl\EcatStack
I also copied TI_ESC.xml in C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Config\Io\EtherCAT.
I use Windows 8.1
thank you for your help
Giulio
