 ===== Installation ===== ===== Installation =====
-==== Install EtherCAT ==== +Please make sure that you have previously installed the EtherCAT stack software and EEROS beforehand. Install EEROS as described in [[http://wiki.eeros.org/getting_started/compile_eeros|this tutorial]], but use the command line option ''-DUSE_ETHERCAT=TRUE'' when calling cmake. 
-First, follow the recommended workflow in [[embedded_systems:ethercat:start#recommended_workflow|Recommended Workflow]] on how to install EtherCAT on your system and how to run a demo application without EEROS.+<code>

 +cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/absolute/path/to/working/directory/install-x86-64 -DUSE_ETHERCAT=TRUE .

 +===== Functionality =====
 +The //"ecmasterlib"// provides a callback function (''void callbackFct(...)'') which is called by the Acontis stack once per EtherCAT cycle.
 +This method:
 +  * Copies the received data from the stack into the receive buffer of //"ecmasterlib"//
 +  * Copies the data to be sent from the send buffer of //"ecmasterlib"// to the stack.
 +
 +The receive and send buffers of //"ecmasterlib"// are byte arrays (''uint8_t* inBuffer; uint8_t* outBuffer;'') which are the same size as the PDOs.
 +
 +The //"ecmasterlib"// also provides a condition variable (''std::condition_variable cv;'') to synchronize the user application (i.e. EEROS).
 +
 +When an //"ecmasterlib"// object is created, an instance (monotonic) is created.
 +The stack is started in the same way as in the //"EcMasterDemoDC"// of Acontis.

 These components must also be adapted when creating a new EEROS application. These components must also be adapted when creating a new EEROS application.
  
 +==== Steps ====
 +  - Study produced ENI file carefully (use XML viewer). Under <config><processimage><inputs> and <outputs> you find bitsize and offset of all transmitted values.
 +  - Adjust headerfile accordingly, negative offset values indicate that the entry is not going to be used.
 +  - Make necessary adaptions in //getDrivesBlock// and //setDrivesBlock//.
