I don't used the xml from Twincat für the ep's.
You have only to type in your console:
ethercat pdos
then you have the Information for the EL or EP Module.
I think for the AX5205 you need the configuration for the PDO.
I had configured my JAT servo amplifiers first and then created the XML afterwards. Find attached my configuration.
Can you send us the console output for ethercat pdos like
ethercat pdos >> pdo.list

ethercat slave
0 0:0 PREOP + EK1100 EtherCAT-Koppler (2A E-Bus)
1 0:1 PREOP + EL1809 16K. Dig. Eingang 24V, 3ms
2 0:2 PREOP + EL2809 16K. Dig. Ausgang 24V, 0.5A
3 0:3 PREOP + AX5203-0000-0203 EtherCAT Drive (SoE, 2 Ch.)
Attachment is my pdos output
Maybe you can help me also with .hal file to get basic things there? Do you use some configuration utility like pncconf?

Hello
think we can do it.
Please make a new Twincat Projekt.
Scan the Ethercat and Save the Projekt.
The please send us the Projekt File as ZIP.
So I can open it and search for a couple of Information.

The EL1809 is the same like EP1819 you can use my xml.
You have to chance the pid=".. for the EL1809.
Make a new config with pnconf for LPT Port or so. Then start with basic ethercat impementation.

What he means is to type ethercat slaves --verbose which reports the vendor id (vid) and the product Id (pid). The XML vid should not change as they are both Beckhoff devices but you need to change the pid to what is reported.
Building digital io xml files is very straight forward. Here is one (slave 2) we built recently that has 8 bit values for a block of inputs or outputs when you have a series if single bits github.com/rodw-au/linuxcnc-cia402/blob/...ercat-conf-diewu.xml
Where your pdos say:you end up with something like:
where the hal pin name is arbitrary

Thank you all. It seems it is doable.
Easy question:
When I create all .xml files, do I merge them all to an single ethercat.xml? Or I can include them from 'global' one? Or I can use several loadusr command to read them one by one?

All the examples Ive seen just show one xml file'. Sometimes its useful to reduce the number of devices on the bus to get something going with a shorter xml file, then merge together later

Hello boyzo,
I will send you my Example Ethercat Maschine tonight.
Then you can start with your ethercat xml.
1. Only EK1100 --> start LCNC and watch in Hal monitor . When lcec is in OP then you can go head.
2. EK1100 + EL1809 (Copy the XML part from EP1819, change the <slave idx="2" to "1" and change the pid to x071b3052 and change Name EP..to EL. When lcec is in OP then you can go head.
