Does the SDK that supports the TIDEP001 include the EtherCAT Slave Stack Code customized for the Sitara processor?

    Ralph,

    The SDK - PRU-ICSS Industrial Software for Sitara™ Processors, which is on top of Processor SDK RTOS (www.ti.com/.../PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X) has the EtherCAT demo code and PRU firmware. The EtherCAT Slave Stack is from third party though, see the EtherCAT user guide wiki - processors.wiki.ti.com/.../PRU_ICSS_EtherCAT:

    ---------------------
    1 . Simple Demo Application - An EtherCAT sample application built using pre-built EtherCAT stack library. This allows limited development using SSC5.11 stack library via Sample Application Interface which provides controlling 32- bit input and 32-bit output. Object dictionary adaptation is not possible in this evaluation version. This will be the default configuration for EtherCAT. The project files for this application can be generated following Generating Project Files.. The example application will be delivered in source, but the EtherCAT stack will be delivered in object format only.
    2. Full Feature Demo Application - This is a full-fledged application and provides full flexibility and configurability. However this application need access to complete stack source. As per the SLA terms, TI cannot distribute the stack (Beckhoff Slave Sample Code) in source format. Therefore, to build this application, user must get the SSC 5.11 source code from ETG website and apply the provided patch. The project files for this application can be generated following Generating Project Files. For more information, refer the section on "Building Full Feature EtherCAT Application" of this document.
