Hi all,
Is anyone working on drivers for a 4-channel CAN card? and what
EtherCAT drivers are currently available?
We're talking about using such hardware, so I might need to have a go
myself...
I am assuming that Peak's Linux driver (non real-time) works with their
4 channel card.
Is there some problem that has prevented all 4 channels being supported
in the current Xenomai peak-pci driver?
Any info or ideas is appreciated.
Regards,
David.

I never heard of EtherCAT with CAN? It normally uses Ethernet network
devices. Or have I missed something?

Me too.

Not that I know of, apart from the missing code (so far the RTcan
"peak_pci" driver only supports up to 2 channels).

IIRC, there is CANopen over EtherCAT. But that doesn't mean a raw CAN
interface is provided by an EtherCAT stack.
