PDO COMMUNICATIONS

The PDO (Process Data Object) communication packets conserve bus band-
width by bundling the values of a group of objects into a single message. The
1356 /1356P is controlled and monitored through four PDOs. PDO messages
have a medium priority and each PDO always carries 8 bytes of data. The content
of these PDOs can be dynamic mapped as Curtis AC motor controllers. For
PDO dynamic mapping information, please refer to Curtis document Generic
CANopen Implementation.
A PDO transfers 8 bytes of data across the CAN bus. Any given byte is
mapped to a single byte of a pre-defined CAN Object. Mapping can be done
statically as part of the system design, or it can be done "dynamically" by us-
ing SDO transfers. Dynamic mapping is implemented on the 1356 /1356P, as
described in Section 5: SDO Communications.
PDO-MISO messages can be transmitted either in Cyclic Transmission
mode or in standard Master/Slave mode.
The Cyclic Transmission mode allows the 1356 /1356P to periodically
transmit the PDO-MOSI at the programmed cycle rate. The cycle rates are ad-
justable via two parameters: TPDO1 Cycle Rate (for PDO1-MISO) and TPDO2
Cycle Rate (for PDO2-MISO). If the rate is set to 0, the Cyclic Transmission
mode will be disabled and only the standard Master/Slave mode will be available.
In standard Master/Slave mode, the 1356 /1356P requires the PDO-MOSI
to be cyclic from the master. The cycle time must be less than the programmed
PDO Timeout. If the PDO-MOSI is not received within the programmed
time, the 1356 /1356P will flag a PDO Timeout fault and disable all output
drivers. If the PDO Timeout parameter is set to 0, the PDO Timeout fault is
disabled and the 1356 /1356P will respond to any PDO incoming at any rate
without faulting.
The following tables describe the PDOs exchanged with default mapping.
