CANopen EDS-Files for 4Dpro devices

Supported interfaces: CANopen in 4Dpro devices on board

To use CANopen with the 4Dpro devices the below EDS Files can be used.
See this Manual_CANopen_SICK-Ident_V17.pdf for general handling. The Manual is already included in the EDS ZIP file.

When you use CAN-Open you loose the option to run Master/Slave or Multiplexer/Server. As well it is at CAN-Open not possible to program with SOPAS via CAN. These Options are only given at Sick CAN Scanner Network.

 You can use CAN-Open or SICK CAN Scanner Network, but not both at same time. Use only devices with build in CAN-Interface.

Here an CAN-Open PC-Adapter from EMS Wuensche is used to demontstrate the commuication: CANopen_Example_using_PC-Adapter.pdf

• Master/Slave: Can be used to get only one (common) result from a group of devices.
• Multiplexer/Server: Here each device is individual triggered and each result is passed to the host including the address of the server.
• With SOPAS HUB Addressing each device can be parameterized using SOPAS via the CAN-Bus. Viewing or transfer of picture is not possible.
