AT-EM EtherCAT Master Stack Software


EtherCAT Master Stack

The AT-EM / embedded EtherCAT Master Stack is designed and optimized to run on different embedded (real time) operating systems.
Already existing implementations are available e.g. for Windows CE, VxWorks, On Time RTOS-32, QNX, RTX and Windows XP.
For evaluation purposes a Windows XP non-real-time solution exists: any network adapter card may be used to connect a PC with EtherCAT modules. Using the source code the EtherCAT master stack can easily be ported on other embedded operating systems.


Advantages:

Ready-to-run for many operating systems and for the Windows real-time extensions.
Easy to port on other embedded operating systems.
Modular design, individual adjustments are easy to implement.
Together with our services you get professional partnership setting up your custom control system. On request you may get the complete system integration.
Reliable and robust implementation. For example, the AT-EM EtherCAT Master Stack is running in the KUKA Robot Control and in the Lenze-Digitec control systems.
