     7 This is a minimal example application for the use of the EtherCAT

     8 master realtime RTDM interface with an XENOMAI POSIX thread.

     9 

    10 The application expects an XENOMAI installation. Configure the master sources

    11 specifying --enable-rtdm --with-xenomai-dir to have the right include paths.

    12 

    13 Most probably you'll have different EtherCAT slaves present. Try adjusting the

    14 section "process data" in main.c to your bus configuration.

    15 

    16 There are some features that can be disabled by commenting out the respective

    17 defines at the head of main.c.

    21 To build the example, call:

    22 

    23 make 

    24 

    25 To run it, preload the EtherCAT RTDM module:

    26 

    27 modprobe ec_rtdm

    28 

    29 and call as root:

    30 

    31 ./ec_xenomai_posix_example

    32 

    33 ...and watch the system logs for the outputs.
