     5 Virtual TTY interface driver for EtherCAT slave supporting serial comm

     6 

     7 Quick installation guide:

     8 

     9 ./configure --with-linux-dir=/your/linux/directory --enable-tty

    10 make all modules

    11 make modules_install install

    12 rcethercat start

    13 insmod tty/ec_tty.ko

    14 insmod examples/tty/ec_tty_example.ko

    15 

    16 The default settings for the serial line are 9600 8 N 1.

    17 

    18 The tty example operates a Beckhoff EL6002 at ring position 1. For a short

    19 test, connect port X1 with a serial port via null modem cable. If a minicom is

    20 started on that port and the below command is entered, the output should be

    21 visible in minicom:

    22 

    23 echo "Hello World" > /dev/ttyEC0
