Appendix E
CANopen Network Example
This appendix provides instructions on how to use the IXXAT CANopen
Configuration Studio and the Mauell CoDeSys AA programming software to
configure the Mauell Telmatic ME-series of PLC hardware.
Example Network
After the adapter is configured, the connected drive and adapter are a single
node on the network. This appendix provides the steps that are needed to
configure a simple network like the network shown in Figure E.1
. A PC/
CAN-Interface card (for example tinCAN from IXXAT) is needed to
configure the CANopen network with the computer. In our example, the
drive is configured for using Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback
and all Datalinks over the network.
