CANopen
Introduction
The CANopen Nodes provide a means for the user to perform several actions within the CANopen protocol. CANopen is a form of communication that extends the functionality of the CAN (Controller Area Network) protocol. It provides a standardized framework for defining communication and application layer protocols for devices and systems employing CAN as their underlying physical layer. This standardization facilitates seamless interconnection and interoperability among a diverse range of devices, including but not limited to sensors and motor controllers.
To use the CANopen Nodes in Incari, the user needs to locate the CANopen Attributes in Project Settings and upload a DFC file.
