+The EtherCAT character device will be created with mode 0660 and group root by
+default. If you want to give normal users reading access, create a udev rule
+like this:
+
+# echo KERNEL==\"EtherCAT[0-9]*\", MODE=\"0664\" > /etc/udev/rules.d/99-EtherCAT.rules
+
+Now you can start the EtherCAT master:
+
+# /etc/init.d/ethercat start
+
+Have fun!
