EtherCAT:EC ETHERCAT INIT

Initialize EtherCAT. This subroutine uses two flags.
The flag EC_ADDRESS_BY_ALIAS determines whether slave addressing is position based (ZERO) or is done according to dip switch setting (ONE).
The global flag EC_BUSID determines the field bus that will be used. At the moment only EtherCAT exists, and the flag is automatically set to zero. In the future it will have a bigger role.
