Hello Mike,
since netPI includes a netX51 chip that is a slave chip only, netPI RTE 3 can only support slave functionality.
But since CODESYS soft PLC includes PROFINET Master, EtherCAT Master and EtherNet/IP Scanner for 50,-EUR over port eth0 it makes no sense for Hilscher to offer a master too.
You can try CODESYS yourself with another Docker container https://hub.docker.com/r/hilschernetpi/n...sys-basis/. Without a license it runs 2 hours and then stops.
We have youtube video as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXIHu3-4-eg
Regards
Armin
