cd <classB_path>/Bin/Linux/x64
sudo ./EcMasterDemoEval -f <path_to_eni>/ein.xml -i85254x 1 1 -perf

Syntax:

• -f Use given ENI file
• -i8254x Use LinkLayer „emllI8254x Intel Pro/1000“ for „Intel Pro/1000 network adapter cards“. You may have a different LinkLayer depending on your hardware
  • 1 <instance> Instance nr. May be 2 if you have multiple Ethernet ports.
  • 1 <mode>
    • Mode 0 = Interrupt mode
    • Mode 1 = Polling mode
• -perf enables performance measurements (Enable max. and average time measurement in μs for all EtherCAT jobs)

This demo will initialize the EtherCAT master. To stop the demo press CTRL+C The demo will output some performance benchmark.

In the following example the maximal „Cycle Time“ is 1005.2usec. This means, the max jitter is 5.2usec (very good)
