The latest update of VS EtherCAT Master 2 for Windows x64, version 2.6.606, has been released to offer the users a more seamless and efficient experience.
In comparison to version 2.5.28702, this latest version introduces the following improvements:
EEPROM request execution timeout
A possibility to set a maximum time of EEPROM request execution has been added. The value is set as the ss.eeprom.request_timout INI parameter.- Licensing policy change
Starting from September 2023 we have disabled possibility to bind all new VS licenses to USB Flash drives. As an alternative, for "portable" licenses we suggest using secure Software protection system (with TDI Matrix USB dongle) provided by VS.
The changes will not affect the already generated license keys bound to USB Flash drives, they will work as before until reactivation would be needed (e.g. in case of hardware failure or loss).
Binding new "portable" licenses is possible only using VS Software protection system.
