Combining Today's Best Technologies
COMMUNICATIONS (CONTINUED)
CANOPEN
Based on the CAN V2.0b physical layer, a robust, two-wire communication bus originally designed for automotive use where low-cost
and noise-immunity are essential, CANopen adds support for motion-control devices and command synchronization. The result is a
highly effective combination of data-rate and low cost for multi-axis motion control systems. Device synchronization enables multiple
axes to coordinate moves as if they were driven from a single control card.
CANOPEN COMMUNICATION
Xenus uses the CAN physical layer signals CANH, CANL, and GND for connection, and CANopen protocol for communication.
Before installing the drive in a CAN system, it must be assigned a CAN address. A maximum of 127 CAN nodes are allowed on a single
CAN bus. The rotary switch on the front panel controls the four lower bits of the seven-bit CAN address. When the number of nodes on
a bus is less than sixteen, the CAN address can be set using only the switch.

CANOPEN CONNECTORS
Dual RJ-45 connectors that accept standard
Ethernet cables are provided for CAN bus
connectivity. Pins are wired-through so that
drives can be daisy-chained and controlled
with a single connection to the user's
CAN interface. A CAN terminator should
be placed in the last drive in the chain.
The XTL-NK connector kit provides a D-Sub
adapter that plugs into a CAN controller
and has an RJ-45 socket that accepts the
Ethernet cable.
