EtherCAT Slave (EasyCAT) component

Provides support for the EtherCAT Slave industrial protocol using an EasyCAT Arduino shield. The shield can be driven from a Flowcode compatible Arduino type board or can be driven using an Arduino using the SCADA Slave firmware to drive EtherCAT from the Flowcode simulation runtime. Compatible with the EasyCAT Easy Configurator tool.
