The following enchancements have been implemented to improve the Multimaster feature:- From now on the only configurations specified in EtherCAT Master INI file are accepted as valid EtherCAT Master configurations. If the configuration that is used to create a EtherCAT Master instance is not specified in the Masters parameter, new error code will be returned – 0X804A.
- Thread parameters values in INI file inherit values from the default KPAMaster configuration, if thread parameters are not set in current configuration.
