Fcan-01 Canopen Adapter Module - ABB FCAN-01 User Manual

18
The physical medium of CANopen is a differentially driven
two wire bus line with common return according to ISO 11898. The
maximum length of the bus is limited by the communication speed
as follows:
Bit rate
1 Mbit/s
800 kbit/s *
500 kbit/s
250 kbit/s
* Not supported by FCAN-01
The maximum theoretical number of nodes is 127. However, in
practice, the maximum number depends on the capabilities of the
used CAN transceivers.
Further information is available from the CAN in Automation
International Users and Manufacturers Group (www.can-cia.org).

FCAN-01 CANopen Adapter module

The FCAN-01 CANopen Adapter module is an optional device for
ABB drives. It enables the connection of the drive to a CANopen
network. The drive is considered as a slave (server) on the
CANopen network. With the FCAN-01 CANopen Adapter module,
you can:
• give control commands to the drive
(for example, Start, Stop, Run enable)
• feed a motor speed, torque or position reference to the drive
• give a process actual value or a process reference to the PID
controller of the drive
• read status information and actual values from the drive
• change drive parameter values
• reset a drive fault.
