Is NI going to use EtherCAT?

[Javier_dP]

Hello everybody!

I've seen in www.ethercat.org that NI is member of this organization.  So, here the following question:

Is National Instruments going to use EtherCAT bus in RT fieldpoint modules?

Thanks

Hi! Thanks for the link (I didn't knew about this consortium), I knew that there were efforts to make deterministic Ethernet, but I thought it was oriented to PowerLink... in which NI seems not to be involved, in fact!
