Good morning i'am try integrate a Beckhoff servodrive Ax5000 with a EtherCAT network with Labview. I have the XML description file and the XML dictionary file of every commands to the drive. I can import the description file, but I can't edit any parameter and initial command to the drive. I think this happens because I can't import the XML dictionary file to the Labview. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?
In attach exist the XML files (description file and the dictionary file)

hello.
I'm not sure I have understood exactly your problem.
When you import your the xml file from your servodrive, why don't you read it (Read data from xml file.vi example in LabVIEW), modify the values you want, and then create another xml file, that you will send to the servodrive?

Dear El Mehdi A.
The problem isn't so simple. I have a servo drive to control the motor, this drive belongs to the AX5000 series Beckhoff made. The communication between the servo drive and PXI controller is made with EtherCAT communication protocol. Servo drive AX5000 is parametrize with SERCOS interface protocol. My question is simple, whit the Labview, how can I parametrize the servo drive?
