# On CANopen Receive

## Overview

![The On CANopen Receive Node.](/files/na3m6qook2Ihepkhc6ty)

**On CANopen Receive Node** is an **Event Listener Node** allowing the user to perform an action once a **CANopen** `Configuration` is selected from the **Drop-down Menu**.

[**Scope**](/incari-studio/2024.1/toolbox/overview.md#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**.

## Attributes

![The On CANopen Receive Node Attributes.](/files/s6pM8UlboIfOrQN0dH8K)

| Attribute           | Type                               | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `Configuration`     | **Drop-down**                      | The identifying connection name that will be used, which has already been set up in the [**Project Settings**](/incari-studio/2024.1/modules/project-settings/canopen.md).                                                     |
| `Protocol`          | **Dropdown**                       | The desired protocol to use when sending the message. Presently, only `PDO` is possible.                                                                                                                                       |
| `Is Custom Message` | **Bool**                           | Can be toggled on or off depending on whether it is a custom message or not. Toggling it on changes the `Index` and `Subindex` into editable input fields allowing values from 0-FFFF for the former and 0-255 for the latter. |
| `Index`             | **Drop-down**                      | The index of the signal. Values depend on which `Protocol` has been selected.                                                                                                                                                  |
| `Subindex`          | **Drop-down**                      | The subindex of the signal. Values depend on which `Index` has been selected.                                                                                                                                                  |
| `CANopen Type`      | **Defined by previous selections** | The value type to be sent which is determined by index and subindex selection.                                                                                                                                                 |
| `Message Name`      | **String**                         | A custom name which remains read-only.                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| `Type`              | **String**                         | A message type which remains read-only, unless `Is Custom Message` is set to *true*.                                                                                                                                           |

## Outputs

| Output             | Type      | Description                                                                                                                            |
| ------------------ | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *Pulse Output* (►) | **Pulse** | A standard **Output Pulse**, to move onto the next **Node** along the **Logic Branch**, once this **Node** has finished its execution. |
| `Message`          | **Any**   | The received value.                                                                                                                    |

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2024.1/toolbox/communication/canopen/events/oncanopenreceive.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
