Hello everyone,
I am involved in a project regarding to the EtherCAT and LabVIEW Realtime Module (2013 Version). For the EtherCAT, we use FC1100 slave card in a regular PC with LabVIEW RT OS to enable this PC as a slave, but the problem is that the LabVIEW RT OS cannot reconginze the FC1100 slave card (FC1100 card, in general, is a Internet card with PCI interface), I am trying to use NI-VISA software to program a driver for this FC1100 card, but I do not have the PCI device ID for FC1100 and Beckhoff company do not provide the hardwar manual reference neither, therefore does anyone know how to make this driver without PCI device ID using the NI-VISA?Or does anyone know how to program this driver for FC1100 other than using NI-VISA?
Any suggestion is welcome
Thank you,
Yan

Hi XiaolinAtUB,
Could you put the FC1100 card into a Windows computer and get the PCI device ID from the Windows device manager?

Hello WishKebab,
Thanks for your response,
Yes, by checking the information in the WIndows Device manager, I got the Manufactuer ID and Device ID.
Here is the link that I feel it is very helpful,
