- On 64bit platforms, enabling the XHP mode is not possible; if the driver is part of a model that requires XHP enabled, it is advised to group the OpInputs/OpOutputs used by EtherCAT slave in a separate subsystem that will operate with XHP = off.
- Number of boards: Only supports one EtherCAT slave board per target.
- Memory alignment: Data can be only aligned on 8-bit boundary in the CIFX Dual Port Memory. If only one 'bool' value is configured, it will be stored as one byte. However, 8 'bool' values configured one after each other will be stored in one byte (not in 8 bytes).
- Offline mode: Driver does not work offline.
- Platform: Driver can only be used on Linux (OPAL-RT Linux RTLinux x86-based 32bit and OPALRTOPAL-Linux RTLinux x64-based 64bit platforms).
- Data types: bool, uint8, int8, uint16, int16, uint32, int32, uint64, int64, float, double.
- Maximum cyclical transmission size: The driver can only send cyclically 256 bytes at once.
- Maximum cyclical reception size: The driver can only receive cyclically 256 bytes at once.
