Hi Zhan,

The tpmac support module has support for ethernet PMACs. There is an Asyn interpose layer that deals with the additional protocol that the ethernet PMACs need.

In your IOC startup file, you'll need something like this:

#Asyn PORT name, #IP address and IP port 
pmacAsynIPConfigure("pmacLV", "172.23.243.156:1025") 

#Asyn PORT name, #Asyn ADDR, #Card ID, #Number of axes
pmacAsynMotorCreate("pmacLV", 0, 0, 8) 

#Asyn PORT name for motor record, #Asyn motor driver name, #Card ID, #Number of axes+1 
drvAsynMotorConfigure("PMAC1", "pmacAsynMotor", 0, 9)

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Matthew
