Configuring / programming

The following section contains concise descriptions of the configuring steps for the three
operating modes of the PN/CAN LINK:
● CANopen Manager
● CANopen Slave
● CAN transparent
The descriptions are not based on any specific example configuration. They are intended to
illustrate the basic method for configuring the PN/CAN LINK and to provide a fast
introduction to configuring the PN/CAN LINK.
The descriptions refer to the TIA Portal V14.

Configuring CANopen Manager

9.1.1

Overview

The PN/CAN LINK is configured in the TIA Portal. For "CANopen Manager" operating mode,
configuring consists mainly of the following steps:
1. Drag PN/CAN LINK from the HW catalog to the project.
2. Set the PROFINET-specific parameters.
3. Specify operating mode of the PN/CAN LINK (here, "CANopen Manager").
4. Set the bus-specific parameters, e.g. node ID and transmission rate.
5. Integrate additional CAN nodes; import the EDS files.
6. Define transmit PDOs and receive PDOs of the node.
7. Create OD entries for the transmit and receive data to be exchanged in the
manager module.
8. Define the corresponding receive PDOs and transmit PDOs in the manager module.
9. If necessary, make additional settings, such as heartbeat, node guarding and SYNC.
10.Check and compile the configuration.
