| Items 2 and 3 can be covered with the software [[https://www.acontis.com/eng/products/ethercat/ec-engineer/index.php | EC-Engineer]]. This software already includes a software EtherCAT master. The EtherCAT network can then be attached to the Ethernet port of the PC and scanned by the software. This software is not free of charge. Please make sure to run the program with administrator rights. | Items 2 and 3 can be covered with the software [[https://www.acontis.com/eng/products/ethercat/ec-engineer/index.php | EC-Engineer]].

| Alternatively, you can download the free software [[https://www.elmomc.com/product/easii/ | EASII]] (Elmo Application Studio 2) from Elmo. In this case you need a hardware EtherCAT master from Elmo, e.g. the [[https://www.elmomc.com/product/gold-maestro/ | Gold Maestro]] from Elmo. | Alternatively, you can download the free software [[https://www.elmomc.com/product/easii/ | EASII]] (Elmo Application Studio 2) from Elmo.
