I try to use an EtherCAT device with NI IC-3172 Industrial controller. The IC is running on Labview 2015 RT. The EtherCAT driver is 18.0 version. The device is using Hilscher COMX 51CA-RE EtherCAT communication card. I imported the configuration XML to Labview and added the device in the project explorer to the EtherCAT Master. When I am trying to put it into OP mode it stuck in PreOP mode and throw an error:
Slave has thrown an emergency.
Emergency code: x400
Emergency data: DC 26 05 80 04
I tried it with TwinCAT but it works there. I can easily put it into OP mode there. Any suggestion what should i try?

Hi KocsisP,
We didn't have an explanation about the emergency code. Is there any error code was reported? Also, could you share the XML file with me?
Thanks,

Hi SSPTest,
I have attached the XML. Where should I look for the errorcode?
Thank you,

With the help of NI Technical Support we managed to solve the problem. There was a missing element in the XML file.

I am having the same issue with a Hilscher NET 100 RE - DP. Could you elaborate on the missing element in the XML file?
Thanks

Well, I took a shot and unfortunately I am still stuck in PreOP mode. Attached is the .xml file Hilscher provided with the device.
For reference, I am using a Hilscher NETX 100 RE/DP and cRIO 9055.
The Emergency Code I get is xA000 and the Emergency Data is 0C 23 00 C8 00
Could anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Andrew

Dear Andrew,
I obtained the same error when I try to import a different ECAT slave (Ingenia EVE-XCR).
Have you find a solution? or Do you have any further details about the error code xA000?
[Emergency Code xA000, Emergency Data (hex) 0E 0B 00 0B 00].
I look forward hearing any feedback from you,
Best,
Filippo
