The I/O device on DIN rail PCAN-MicroMod FD DR CANopen Digital 1 from PEAK-System passed both the official CiA (CAN in Automation) conformance tests for CANopen® and for CANopen FD®. The device firmware is based on the Micro CANopen Plus protocol stack by the partner Embedded Systems Academy (EmSA), gaining easiness stepping through the conformance tests.
The device is one of the first industrial off-the-shelf I/O devices available that offer both conformance-tested CANopen® and CANopen FD® interfaces. The configuration is simplified, 4 dials are used to make the settings which are documented directly on the housing. No further configuration software is required.
All other products from the PCAN-MicroMod FD line can load the Micro CANopen Plus protocol stack as an option. There are further aluminum-housed I/O modules supporting analog inputs and outputs, as well as PWM or frequency outputs, and a System on Module solution (SoM) to integrate customized I/O with CAN/CAN FD, CANopen, and CANopen FD operating modes.
CANopen EDS/XDD files are available for download for all PCAN-MicroMod FD products documenting the CANopen or CANopen FD functionality. Furthermore, the PCAN-MicroMod FD Evaluation Board includes a free CANopen FD license.
