4.4 Expansion Modules MAC00-FC2/FC4
4.4.16 CanOpenExplorer program
The CanOpenExplorer is a program that was developed for internal use only, especially
in the production, but the program have features that is nice to have, and make it more
easily to start up the MAC motor when this is supply with a MAC00-FC2/FC4 modul.
The program can write and send SDOs, PDOs, SYNC and heartbeat message, and finally
it can reads EDS files.
4.4.17 An overall method for communication test
Depending on which type of master and software solution there are available, shall these
parts be available:
PLC: PLC with a CANopen® module and software that can communicate with this
PC: PC with a CAN adaptor and software that can communicate with this module,
or if the CanOpen Explorer software is used the PCAN-USB Dongle from
Peak-system that is connected to a USB port on the PC. Peak systems web page
are www.peak-system.com here are a list of distributors. If MacTalk is used, the
PC and the MAC00-FC2/FC4 are connected via the RS232 interface on the
MAC00-FC2/FC4module. To set up the master, download the EDS file from the
JVL web-page, see section 4.3.8. This file contains all register set-up in the
MAC00-FC2/FC4. The node-ID, the Baud-rate, and the termination resistor,
has to be selected on the module, see from section 4.3.11 to section 4.3.13, and
the power supply has to be connected to the motor as shown in section 3.2.5.
If CanOpenExplorer is used, see the following method to test the motor communication:
- Load CanOpenExplorer.
- Connect the motor to the USB port via the Dongle.
- Connect power supply, see section 3.2.5.
- Run the CanOpenExplorer program on the PC.
1: Select the correct node ID, in the slave.
2: Select the EDS file, for all the MAC motors it is MAC00-fc.eds.
3: Load the EDS file by pressing load.

module. The CANopen® module shall be connected to a CAN bus, as shown in
section 4.3.14 and section 4.3.15. To set up the master, download the EDS file
from the JVL web page, see section 4.3.8. This file contains all register set-up
data for in the MAC00-FC2/FC4. The node-ID, the Baud-rate, and the termina-
tion resistor, has to be selected on the module, see from section 4.3.11 to
section 4.3.13. And the power supply has to be connected to the motor as shown
in section 3.2.5.
