CD or it can be downloaded from the website www.helmholz.com in the download area. This document should present the initial commissioning of the PN/CAN-Gateway with a simple CANopen® device. It is presumed that the CANopen® device has already been basically configured (Node ID, device-specific parameters, PDO mapping, etc.).
Additional field devices -> Gateway -> Helmholz PN/CAN-Gateways". Add the "PN/CAN-Gateway CANopen" device to the project and connect it with your PROFINET network. By calling up the object properties, you can assign the PN/CAN-Gateway a unique PROFINET name and check the IP address assigned by the system for plausibility.
Set the CAN Bitrate and the CAN Master Node ID. In some applications, a SYNC frame or heartbeat frame of the master is necessary for operation. The other "PN/CAN CO" slot entries contain no parameters. 5. Add CANopen® device A "CANopen® device" is a CANopen® slave. An entry must be created for each CANopen® slave.

TPDOs (transmit process data objects) are data sent by the CANopen® slave to the PLC (input data from PLC view). RPDOs (receive process data objects) are sent by the PLC to the CANopen® slave (output data from PLC view). The data size of the PDOs depends upon the data found in the PDO (PDO mapping) and can range between one and 8 bytes.
Important: The assigned name must agree with the name defined in the hardware configurator. If the PN/CAN-Gateway contains the correct PROFINET name, it is recognized by the PLC and configured. When the configuration has run correctly, the blue "Mode" LED should blink. Quick Start Guide PN/CAN-Gateway CANopen®...
NMT state The two NMT state bits show the status of the CANopen® master. Principally an attempt is made to assume the state called for in the NMT-State Control. However, this can be prevented by the absence of slaves configured as mandatory (neces- sary).

The PDO data is found as inputs (TPDOs) or as outputs (RPDOs) directly in the process map. The inputs always show the last received data of the TPDO. When changed values are written onto the outputs, RPDO frames are sent to the corresponding CANopen® slave. 9.5 SDO communication SDO communication with the slaves can take place following the initialization phase of the PN/CAN-Gateway both in the Pre-Operational and Operational modes.
CANopen® slaves are in Operational Flashing blue PN/CAN-Gateway is correctly configured via PROFINET and at least one CANopen® slaves is in Pre-Operational or Stop or the gateway is not started. Red on No connection with PROFINET controller (PLC) Flashing red...
