Hi
We have a powerlink network consisting of X20 modules from B&R and a MN based on openPowerlink v1.8.4.
We have generated the network in FieldbusDesigner and used the .xdc files as input to openConfigurator.
We define the nodes in ascending order (1,2,3,4,51,52). When we start the MN and configure all CNs, the last 2 modules on the last node (52) get a NetworkStatus = 0x14 (oppsed to all other modules where NetworkStatus registers are 0xf5 as expected)
The strange thing is that if I defines the nodes in openConfigurator in the oposite direction (52,51,4,3,2,1) a similar problem occurs on CN1. We are using the same .xdc files on both cases.
Attached is openConfigurator project with nodes defined ascending. Also attaching .xdc files from FieldbusDesigner.
I will attach the openConfigurator project and all .xdc files.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I had a look into your XDC's and the openCONFIGURATOR project. Unfortunately there is a compatibility issue in openCONFIGURATOR with regards to openPOWERLINK stack.
For you to have a working system.
1) Apply the attached patch on the sourcecode or use the code from the BugFix branch
2) You need to re-compile the libraries. Refer the section "7. Compiling openCONFIGURATOR from source" from usermanual, present in your installed directory
3) Compile your CDC and get your system working.

Hello Ole,
I had a look into your XDC's and the openCONFIGURATOR project. Unfortunately there is a compatibility issue in openCONFIGURATOR with regards to openPOWERLINK stack.
This issue is already reported and solved.

Thanks a lot for the information. It solved my issue. Any plans to include this in a new release anytime soon?
Hi Ole,
We are preparing a bugfix release of openCONFIGURATOR (including this and some other fixes) that is going to be published within the next 2 weeks.
Best regards,
Wolfgang
