Hi,

We are considering using EtherCAT hardware and the Diamond EtherCAT support module to replace some aging VME systems. I was wondering how many other labs have gone down this path and what comments (good or bad) they had about this solution.

Thanks,
Damien



Hello Damien,

I just started with this but have not much experience yet. I am trying to run it on an embedded RT-patched Linux VME IOC but get strange "out of memory" errors from the XML parser (with hundreds of megabyte free of memory).
