Process value and parameter indicators for CAN-Bus Product Features: The CA340 variant is a simple indicator unit for remote display of all actual data which are available on the connected CAN-Bus network. Arbitrary parameters or actual values can be read or displayed.

1. Safety Instructions and Responsibility 1.1. General Safety Instructions This operation manual is a significant component of the unit and includes important rules and hints about the installation, function and usage. Non-observance can result in damage and/or impairment of the functions to the unit or the machine or even in injury to persons using the equipment! Please read the following instructions carefully before operating the device and observe all safety and warning instructions! Keep the manual for later use.
Please find all respective hints and rules on www.motrona.com/download.html --> “[General EMC Rules for Wiring, Screening and Earthing]”. 1.4. Cleaning, Maintenance and Service Notes To clean the front of the unit please use only a slightly damp (not wet!), soft cloth.
CANopen network for communication. CA541 also allows remote setting of a single parameter. CA340 serves as pure readout unit without preset functions. Both units are built into a DIN housing and have a 6 decade, 15mm size LED-display.

Slider 4 defines the most significant digit of the front thumbwheel switches to be transmitted as a number or a sign (CA541 only): 1 2 3 1 2 3 OFF: 0...9 ON: +/- The version with a sign (option VZ000) requires slider 4 to be “ON“ at any time! 6.
7. Data transmission by SDO (Service Data Object) [DIL switch slider 8 = OFF] The unit requests the display value by an SDO (Service Data Object) read request and transmits the preset value (CA541 only) by an SDO write request. Within the next 2.5 sec (Timeout) a corresponding read or write response is awaited.

The code of the register to be displayed and the code of the register to be Set are requested from register code 473 of the target unit. When transmitting on parameter channel 1 (SDO1) Subcode 3...6 is used, transmitting on parameter channel 2 (SDO2) Subcode 7...10 is used. Therefore, it is possible to display respectively to preset two different values of one target device by using two display units running on different parameter channels (Version CA34002A and later).
With the CA541, Position 6 of the 8-position DIL switch selects only temporary use of transmit data in the target device (no storage to EEPROM), or continuous use even after power down (nonvolatile storage to EEPROM by setting register Code C003 “Par. Save” to 1 after transmitting the value).

(number of decimal places). However, the value will not be stored to non-volatile memory. Therefore the number of decimal places must be re-set on every power on. Node Guarding: The CA340/CA541 provides CANopen Node Guarding. By this function the master can supervise the unit and detect any device breakdown.
