Hi Muks..

Thanks for help me.

I'm not using NI EtherCAT slaves (cRIO-9074) and not exist driver for my device.

So, I'm try to make a EtherCAT protocol using UDP. But, I've set the Ethertype 0x88A4 (Beckhoff EtherCAT) and the LabVIEW don't provide this.

Do you know TwinCAT (Beckhoff's PLC Software)? Do you know how can I access the TwinCAT by LabVIEW (Dll or Ocx)?

If I can access by TwinCAT I haven't to do the EtherCAT protocol.

Thanks.
