NetworkNodeCountGet()

int32_t NetworkNodeCountGet

(

)

Description:

NetworkNodeCountGet returns the number of EtherCAT nodes (SubDevices) that were discovered during network startup and configured in the ENI topology. This is a static count set at network initialization and does not change during operation.

Returns

(int32_t) The number of nodes in the network topology.

Note

This returns the configured/discovered node count, not the number of nodes currently responding. To check how many nodes are actively communicating, use NetworkStatusGet() and examine the ActiveNodeCount field.
