CAN Instruction Return Value
I've picked up project with the following line of code: IF (CAN(-1,8,tsdo,rsdo,$2010,2,520) = -1) THEN Occasionally, for some Axes, the instruction is NOT evaluated as -1. Trying to find out what is returned exactly. If this is some kind of read status,

EtherCAT change Mode of Operation in Drive
The standard PDOs used on Trio EtherCAT masters are single mode. ie either Position (CSP), Speed (CSP) or Torque (CST). Did you know that many drives support the Mode of Operation CoE Object in the Rx PDO? If the drive supports it, then a multi-mode PDO
MP4 - Flash indicator keeps blinking
I've noticed that the Flash indicator in the Controller Tree window of MP4 (v4.3.3 build 17523) keeps blinking when i am connected to the MC. I do not have any commands in the program tasks that are explicitly reading/writing to flash. The system consists of a Flex-6 Nano with two ethercat drives attached. Is this typical of that indicator or something in the ethercat drive config?

Panasonic A6 Multi
Trying to set up an ethercat network between a MC6N-ECAT, flexslice I/O and panasonic A6 multi with 1x MBDM1ABKBX and 3x MADM2A6KBX. The system fully recognises the flexslice and the 3 MADM2A6KBXs but only recognises the MBDM1ABKBX as a Panasonic motor
Servo seems to ignore FS and RS limit when set at high speed

Way to set EtherCAT device addresses sequentially?
Hi - I have 20 EtherCAT capable turbos that I'm connecting to a Flex-6 Nano. I can pick all of them up, but address assignment by the Flex-6 appears to be somewhat random. As an example, device 19 shows up as device 16 so my feedback is there but we found
