I added EL7211-9014 Servo driver xml file in codesys using Tool->Device Repository. XML file was added without any error by codesys as seen on picture 2. After this process Δ± hope that Δ± can add EL7211-9014 xml file on my codesys program without any problem but when Δ± right click on Ethercat_Master->Add_Device as seeen in picture 1, xml file didn't appear. So Δ± can not add xml file. How can I solve this problem? Thank you for helping.
Best Regards.

Dear All,
I solved my previous problem. I have one more question. I added EL7211-9014 XML file on my codesys code. But I can not generate SM driver. I think driver profile of EL7211-9014 is MDP742. How can I drive EL7211-9014 servo driver which has MDP742 driver profile via soft motion. ?
Best Regards.

Hi,
guess you need to change the firmware to have the ds402 profile running. Then you could use
the SoftMotion driver which comes with the SoftMotion Package.

I changed to firmware profile to DS402. I red that ethercat drive will not work with softmotion Generic Driver because of there is no realtime capabilities on the PI. I generated SoftMotion Light Generic Driver
But Δ± got an error shown in png_1 and png_2.
If Δ± generate SoftMotion Generic Driver, I do not get any error until pressing the start button.(png_3,png_4).After pressing the start button, I get the error shown in png_5.
According to what Δ± read, Softmotion Light driver should work without any error. How can Δ± solve this problem.
Best Regards.

Hi,
I would try to check if this drive is SoftMotion light capable
"c:\Program Files\3S CODESYS\CODESYS\Projects\SoftMotion\4.x.x.0\SoftMotionLight\SML_CompatibilityCheck_DS402.project"
If this is the case you could go with SoftMotion light,
if not - the only way is to use an rt_preemt patched Linux Kernel and use SoftMotion then.
