NAutomation.Leadshine.EtherCAT

Typed .NET facade for Leadshine EtherCAT motion-control cards, implemented from Chapter 7 of the Leadshine EtherCAT programming manual. The package hides the vendor dmc_* P/Invoke API and copies the x64 LTDMC.dll runtime to the application's output directory automatically.

Requirements

  • Windows x64
  • .NET Framework 4.7.2 or later
  • Leadshine card, driver, and firmware supported by the supplied LTDMC runtime

Set the consuming executable's Platform target to x64.

Quick start

using NAutomation.Leadshine.EtherCAT;

using (var controller = LeadshineController.Open(0))
{
    var x = controller.Axis(0);
    x.Enable();
    x.SetEquivalent(0.001);
    x.SetProfile(new MotionProfile(0, 100, 0.2, 0.2));
    x.MoveTo(50);

    controller.Io.Write(0, true);
}

API groups

  • Axis(...): enable/reset state, homing, point/JOG motion, encoder, handwheel, PVT and compensation.
  • Coordinate(...): line, arc, rectangle, ellipse, tangent following and continuous interpolation.
  • Io: bit/port I/O, pulse output and input counters.
  • Pwm: immediate PWM output; continuous PWM commands are available on ContinuousPath.
  • Compare: low/high-speed 1D and 2D position comparison.
  • Latch: hardware and software position latch.
  • Safety: circular-zone motion limit.

All native return codes are checked. A failed command throws LeadshineException, whose Operation and ErrorCode properties identify the failed operation.

The managed facade is MIT licensed. LTDMC.dll is a Leadshine vendor runtime and remains subject to the vendor's own distribution and use terms.
