We have a lot of machines that are commisioned with very similiar sets of motor and I/O configurations depending on what options are selected by the customers. I assume somewhere in the /snap/Ethercat/current directory or /var/snap/Ethercat/current directory there is a config file such as an .xml that is defining the setup. I cant seem to find this though. I would ideally like to be able to create a quick config tool so our service techs can alter the configuration in the field without having to use ctrlx IO. I plan to do this with a custom app but am also open to suggestions.
Reconfiguration of Ethercat devices From Ctrlx Core

Hello
an alternative can be, for example different configurations are existing, to use a script via REST to load/replace the current active configuration with an archived project in managed app data. May other data is different, too. By-the-way the ctrlX IO Engineering has a REST interface as well.
May somebody else have any other solution.
