CreateFromSoftware() [1/2]

MotionController * CreateFromSoftware ( )

static

Initialize and start the RMP EtherCAT controller.

Description:

CreateFromSoftware returns a pointer to the MotionController object it represents, and starts RMP.rta if it is not already running

Returns

(MotionController*) A static pointer to the controller specified.

Sample Code:

Initialize the RMP EtherCAT motion controller.

// -- C++ -- //
MotionController *controller = MotionController::CreateFromSoftware();

// -- C# -- //
MotionController myController = MotionController.CreateFromSoftware();

Note

The controller is initialized when this function is called. During the initialization process, if RMP.rta is not running, it will be started. The EtherCAT network is NOT started.
