The FC510x 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
- synchronization with the PC controller’s task cycle
- SYNC cycle with quartz precision for drive synchronization, zero cumulative jitter
- SDO parameter communication at start-up and 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, all functions are conveniently available.
