Hi, you should run the code as a root (sudo) and also include the coupler socket name (usually eth0) in your terminal. For example:

sudo ./simple_test eth0

If it is not eth0, then use ifconfig to get the right coupler socket name. This explanation is for Linux systems.

Hi , actually I have no much experience in etherCats but the input module is for reading and the output one is for writing. There is a function in the main.c file called: void set_output_bit (uint16 slave_no, uint8 module_index, uint8 value) use it to write the channels in the output module.

For connecting the circuit, you should refer to the manual.
