The Python Wrapper provides a Python interface to use acontis EtherCAT Master (EC-Master), acontis EtherCAT Simulator (EC-Simulator) and RAS Client/Server.
Project description
EC-Master-Python
The wrapper provides a Python interface to use the acontis EtherCAT Master stack (EC-Master), acontis EtherCAT Simulator (EC-Simulator) and RAS Client/Server.
Introduction
Similar to the other demos the EcMasterDemoPython shows how to call the EtherCAT Master API. There is also a Python demo for the EC-Simulator. The python demos can also run in interactive mode e.g. to set an output of the EtherCAT network or something else. This is very useful to quickly test different behaviors of the EtherCAT network e.g. with the EC-Simulator.
For more information please refer the user manual: https://public.acontis.com/manuals/EC-Master/3.1/html/ec-master-python/index.html
The binaries are not included into the package.

Example
After installation, the demo can be used e.g. by creating a new file "demo.py" and insert the following code:
::
from EcMasterPython import *
demo = EcMasterDemoPython()
demo.pAppParms.tRunMode = RunMode.Master
demo.pAppParms.dwBusCycleTimeUsec = 4000
demo.pAppParms.szENIFilename = "ENI.xml"
demo.pAppParms.szLinkLayer = "winpcap 127.0.0.1 1"
demo.pAppParms.nVerbose = 3
demo.startDemo()
print("EcMasterDemoPython is running.")
print("Type demo.help() for interactive help.")
#demo.processImage.variables.Slave_1005__EL2008_.Channel_1.Output.set(1)
#demo.processImage.variables.Slave_1005__EL2008_.Channel_1.Output.get()
#demo.processImage.variables.Slave_1005__EL2008_.Channel_1.Output.dmp()
#demo.stopDemo()
