EtherCAT Process Data Sniffer

A logger software that reads EtherCAT process data from a topology parallel to the EtherCAT Master. The EtherCAT system is not affected, because the data stream is copied and sent to another network port by using a Network TAP. The EtherCAT process data is extracted and converted into the slave variables using information from an ENI file. It is possible to enter scaling data to convert the input data into sensor data. The data can be logged to continuous csv files.
