andyf Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 I have a new installation of the IDE v1.5 on Windows 7 that has an issue when I try to use EtherCAT features. When I click on an EtherCAT device in the System Setup window, a debug/error message states that the table ppmaccommon.defaultpdofiles does not exist. When I try to update the device XML file, a similar message indicates the load failed. I am seeing this issue on a new installation of v1.5. I have an older installation of v1.5 that does not have this issue, but was an upgrade from a previous version. Please advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyf Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 I notice now that my IDE 1.5 that works is running Windows 7 SP1, and the one that does not work does not have SP1. Let me update and re-install the IDE and then I'll let you know if the problem persists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyf Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 OK, after installing all updates (including SP1) and re-installing v1.5 PPMAC IDE, the EtherCAT functionality works OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
