How to Get axis Ethercat address

[Ezio]

Hello Everybody,
I would write a "generic" software PLC code to automate axis configuration (parking) without "manual" intervention on the code.
Starting from ctrlX-PLC Rexroth template I would like to get the axis ethercat address (ECAT_ETHERCAT_ADDRESS) starting from axis name (MB_AXISIF_REF) to work with "IL_ECATSoeCommand".

Are there function to get ethercat axis address starting from it's name?
Thank you in advance

You can get the list of avaiable ethercat adresses with IL_ECATGetConfigEthercatAddrList

https://docs.automation.boschrexroth.com/doc/2240960790/il-ecatgetconfigethercataddrlist/latest/en/

And then you can call IL_ECATGetSlaveConfigInfo for each slave, and in the SlaveConfig output there is a SlaveName property.
