Hello,
I'm having trouble configuring EtherCAT on my Raspberry Pi running Codesys 3.5.10.
I'm interfacing it to EtherCAT Slave consisting of EK1100 Coupler and several I/O Terminals - EL2008, EL3202 and EL2602.
The problem is that EK1100 and all those devices are not listed in the Codesys Database and recognized as some Vendorcode, Productcode etc - see screenshot below
But I have seen on this forum, that people interfacing Beckhoff Ethercat devices successfully. Do I need to download some database for my devices?
Could you help me with solving this problem?

Sorry, my bad.
Needed to go to Beckhoff website and download XML Device Descriptions

After that install them using Tools->Device Repository.
