$Id$ vim700: spelllang=en spell Virtual TTY interface driver for EtherCAT slave supporting serial comm Quick installation guide: ./configure --with-linux-dir=/your/linux/directory --enable-tty make all modules make modules_install install rcethercat start insmod tty/ec_tty.ko insmod examples/tty/ec_tty_example.ko The default settings for the serial line are 9600 8 N 1. The tty example operates a Beckhoff EL6002 at ring position 1. For a short test, connect port X1 with a serial port via null modem cable. If a minicom is started on that port and the below command is entered, the output should be visible in minicom: echo "Hello World" > /dev/ttyEC0 Have a lot of fun!
