IApi.ReadSlaveEEprom method

Reads a double word from a slave's EEPROM.

Namespace: IntervalZero.KINGSTAR.Base.Api

Assembly: IntervalZero.KINGSTAR.Base.Api (in IntervalZero.KINGSTAR.Base.dll) Version: 4.4.0.0

Syntax

KsCommandStatus<uint> ReadSlaveEEprom(
       int SlaveId,
       int Offset
)

Function ReadSlaveEEprom(
       SlaveId As Integer,
       Offset As Integer
) As KsCommandStatus(Of UInteger)

Parameters

SlaveId

Type: int

The index of a slave array. When EtherCAT is started, this index has the same value as the SlaveId, which corresponds to the position of the slave in the network. Please note that after EtherCAT is started in the Operational (Op) state, any addition or removal of slaves from the network will change the position of the slaves in the network (SlaveId). Nevertheless, the index of the slave will remain the same. Newly added devices will be added in the back of the slave array. For all slaves after the change, the index and SlaveId will no longer match. This behavior is only available for physical devices; simulated devices are inapplicable. Please refer to the use cases in EnableHotConnect for more details.

Offset

Type: int

The offset in the EEPROM space.

Return value

Type:KsCommandStatus<uint>

Returns the KsCommandStatus class and an unsigned integer value.

Usable EtherCAT states

ecatInit, ecatPreOP, ecatSafeOP, ecatOP
