Purpose

The configuration framework contains the necessary files to configure an EPICS IOC for EtherCAT based motion control and DAQ.

provided common user commands

  • addMaster.cmd
  • addSlave.cmd
  • applySlaveConfig.cmd
  • configureSlave.cmd
  • applyConfig.cmd
  • loadPLCFile.cmd
  • setAppMode.cmd

Example IOC

  1. require the configuration module

    require ecmccfg <VERSION>
  2. add a coupler and slave

      # slave 0 {ecmcEK1100}
      ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}addSlave.cmd,       "HW_DESC=EK1100"
      # slave 1 {ecmcEL1018}, with optional SLAVE_ID
      ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}addSlave.cmd,       "HW_DESC=EL1018, SLAVE_ID=1"
  3. add more slaves and apply configuration to the slaves

      # slave 8 {ecmcEL7037}, configure slave with optional SLAVE_ID
      ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}configureSlave.cmd, "HW_DESC=EL7037, CONFIG=-Motor-Nanotec-ST4118L1804-B, SLAVE_ID=8"
      # slave 9 {ecmcEL7037}, addSlave, with immediate call off applySlaveConfig
      ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}addSlave.cmd,       "HW_DESC=EL7037"
      ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}applySlaveConfig,   "CONFIG=-Motor-Nanotec-ST4118L1804-B"
  4. apply the configuration

       ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}applyConfig.cmd
  5. additional configuration

       EthercatMCConfigController ${ECMC_MOTOR_PORT}, "Cfg.WriteEcEntryIDString(${ECMC_EC_SLAVE_NUM_DIG_OUT},BO_1,1)"
  6. adding a physical motor axis

       epicsEnvSet("DEV",      "STEST-MYDEVICE")
       ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}configureAxis.cmd,            "CONFIG=./cfg/axis_1"
  7. adding a virtual motor axis

       ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}configureVirtualAxis.cmd,     "CONFIG=./cfg/axis_11_virt"
  8. adding synchronization

       ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}applyAxisSynchronization.cmd, "CONFIG=./cfg/axis_1_sync"
       ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}applyAxisSynchronization.cmd, "CONFIG=./cfg/axis_11_sync"
  9. loading a PLC from file

       ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}loadPLCFile.cmd, "PLC_ID=0, FILE=./plc/homeSlit.plc, SAMPLE_RATE_MS=100"
  10. go active

      ${SCRIPTEXEC} ${ecmccfg_DIR}setAppMode.cmd
