Hi,

The example ETHCAT_FWUPDATE_SSC_APPLICATION_XMC48 on the XMC4800_Relax_Kit seems to work fine. But my target application will be completely potted, so that only the power lines and the EtherCAT lines will be connectable after production.

What can happen when unintentionally firmware will be downloaded without an EtherCAT interface or an EtherCAT interface with a bug, so that the interface not works, or not reliable is?

How can I create a construction so that I can be sure that this product under any condition can be updated (by EtherCAT)?

Regards
Gerrard
