CANopen

The CANopen Settings.

The CANopen Settings cover the necessary data to provide functionality to the CANopen Nodes.

Name is an identifying name chosen at the user's discretion. This will show up in the Nodes as a choice for the Configuration Attribute.

Baud Rate (Windows - PCAN) is the speed of the communication for the channel. More information about this metric can be found in the External Links section.

Channel (Windows - PCAN) is the USB port that CANopen is connected to on Windows.

Interface (Linux - SocketCAN) is the identifying name of the CANopen Bus.

Furthermore, the Channel and Interface can both be specified, in the case that the user's platform is different than the target platform. If there is no difference in platforms, only one needs to be filled in.

A DCF File needs to be uploaded and selected. This DCF File is a vital part of the CANopen protocol, as it stores all data regarding the connections between devices in an object dictionary.

Master Node ID is the ID of the node Incari represents.

Slave Node ID is the ID of the node that Incari connects to.

Is Autostart can be enabled or disabled and dictates when the channel is run (from the beginning of an application's life cycle or when the appropriate Nodes are used).
