FC5101, FC5102 | PCI CANopen
The FC5101 and FC5102 PC plug-in cards link the PC to a CANopen network. They optionally act as network master or slave. In addition, general CAN messages can be sent or received – without having to bother with CAN frames in the application program. The cards provide a powerful implementation of the protocol, offering many desirable features:
- All CANopen PDO communication types are supported: event driven, time driven (using an event timer), synchronous, polling.
- individual monitoring of the process data objects
- synchronisation with the PC controller’s task cycle
- SYNC cycle with quartz precision for drive synchronisation, zero cumulative jitter
- parameter communication (SDO) at start-up and at run-time
- emergency message handling
- Guarding and Heartbeat
- boot-up according to DS302
- powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces
- The error management for each bus user is freely configurable.
- It is possible to read the bus configuration and the node parameters.
- online bus load display
- bus monitor functionality
In TwinCAT PLC and NC, all functions are conveniently available. But other applications also benefit from the diverse features: General drivers for Windows NT/2000/XP and convenient configuration tools are included in the TwinCAT I/O software package. High-level language programs use the DLL, Visual Basic applications the ActiveX interface. OPC applications can access process data and parameters via an OPC server.
