I am actuall trying to use the NI9144 Device with the Beckhoff-EtherCAT Master (TwinCAT).
According to the knowledgebase I should be able to read the Interface file (ESI) with the FoE protokoll out of the NI9144 with TwinCAT.

Can anyone please give me some hints what I need to do?
TwinCAT supports FoE. The device is recognized on EtherCAT and there is a dialog to upload via FoE a file. I am aware that the Beckhoff Master can do this only if the IO device is in the boot mode.
When I now trigger the upload there is an option to enter a paramter (maybe the name of the configuration file inside the NI9144) but when I leave it empty there is no file being uploaded.
Thanks
Michael
