[tcguchengjie]

Hello, I have a p1010rdb-pb board.I need it to serve as an EtherCAT master device,but I don't know what to do.Anyone knows how to make it? Thanks in advance for any help.

EtherCAT is implemented as microcode package for Quicc Engine (QE) communication co-processor. This is not supportted on P1010 device - it does not have QE. Please consider using P1021 or P1025 instead.

Have a great day,
Alexander
