ANYBUS NETWORKING PRODUCTS
Master Simulators
The Master Simulator can be used with nearly all CANopen slaves from different manufacturers.
The network scan function automatically detects and identies all operational slaves in a
CANopen network; even if the normally required EDS le is not available. Any CANopen slave
can be set into operation. User friendly dialogs are used to exchange cyclic I/O or explicit
message parameter data.
The Master Simulator consists of a Windows based Software and a CANopen USB-interface
circuitry (Dongle). The Dongle is plugged into the USB port of the PC and provides on the
other side a 9-pin D-Sub connector as the CANopen Interface. The Dongle is powered from
the USB port.

Ordering Information
For example, you can use the tool to test the wiring of the inputs and outputs
of an I/O block or even read and write analog values. The Master Simulator
is useful during setup of the Slave/Adapters in the network as well as during
nal inspection tests at the device manufacturer.
Not only for these purposes, the Master Simulator is an economic alternative
to a PLC or a PC-board. The converter does not need any external power
supply. It takes its power directly from the Probus/DeviceNet/CANopen
interface of the connected device. For this reason, the Master Simulator is
excellent for mobile use with Laptops/Notebooks.

The Master Simulators are easy to use tools to setup and test your Probus, DeviceNet and CANopen Slave/Adapters. The user-friendly
application interface makes it easy to congure, initialize and communicate with the Slave/Adapter devices. Its ideal for test wiring of Inputs
and Ouputs and with Reading and Writing of analog values. It requires no external power supply and is ideal for use with laptops and
Notebooks and makes a good economic alternative to a PLC or PC-card.
