Hi Jiri,

Task is a monitor function that does not require the capture engine.

Try ctlist or ctload ...

Also you need to do either

copen -i 100

or

copen 100
cenable

To get the engine working.

Hope that helps!

The capture engine is very useful, however I have never found any 
documentation for it other than reading the source code.

Likewise the "built-in" monitor commands - have I missed something or
is this something that RTEMS lacks?

Regards

Paul
