Trouble getting your device to connect with JSD or SOEM try

Try assigning your network adaper an IP address

For example, the following shows a new USB NIC that lacks an IP address:

$ ifconfig -a

eth11     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 01:23:45:67:89:ab  
          inet6 addr: fe80::20a:cdff:fe35:913d/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:3823 (3.8 KB)

Create a rule in your /etc/network/interfaces to a static local address like so:

# in etc/network/interfaces

auto eth11 
iface eth11 inet static
	address 10.10.10.10
	netmask 255.255.255.0

Restart your adapter:

$ sudo ifup eth11

And recheck your interface for the IP address:

$ ifconfig -a

eth11     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 01:23:45:67:89:ab  
          inet addr:10.10.10.10  Bcast:10.10.10.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::20a:cdff:fe35:913d/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:137 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:27911 (27.9 KB)

Try running the slaveinfo utility now. Keep hacking!

Bad Working Counter on startup

This issue is likely due to too low a loop frequency typically < ~15 hz. I believe this has to do with the Distributed Clock synchronization.
