Overview
This example demonstrates the usage of an
generic EtherCAT
®
slave node on „XMC4800
Relax EtherCAT
®
Kit“.
The term „generic“ refers to the fact, that
the data structures shared between master
and slave do not have a dedicated
application specific purpose.
While reviewing this example you will see in output direction the
EtherCAT
®
master controlling the 8 LEDs on the „XMC
™
EtherCAT
®
PHY
Board“ and dimming LED2 of the Relax Kit. In input direction you will
monitor inside the master device the status of the buttons available on
the Relax Kit.
You will observe inside code how you can modify the mapping of the
generic data structures to the I/Os for your own evaluations and testing.
