#DEPRECTATED AS OF HYDRO This package has been deprecated as of the ROS Hydro release. An official SOEM library is available under indigo using `sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-soem


ethercat-soem

This package provides an EtherCAT Master implementation using a catkinized version of the OpenEtherCAT Society's Master Library v1.30.

This library was forked from Kelsey Hawkins' initial implementation.

Notes

This library makes use of Linux raw sockets. On Ubuntu this likely means you will need to set certain permissions on any executable built using this library:

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep <binary>
