Default Bit-Rate 500kBit/second. NMT Mode Slave. On start-up the EM100 waits for an NMT start message or SDO request before transmitting anything (Note: This does not conform exactly to the CIA standard).

    EM100-F User Manual 0084293 6.1.1. PDOs Once set to ‘Operational State’, the EM100 will produce TPDOs constantly (see table below). Depending on the data-rate set for the CANopen network, the high number of readings (>1200 per second) can exceed what can be consumed by the NMT master. Equally the update rate may be affected when there are multiple units on the network and/or lower communication speeds used.

    EM100-F User Manual 0084293 6.1.5. SDOs The CANopen SDO is a confirmed service, an over-run does not occur if the CANopen controller only communicates with the EM100 in the ‘Pre-Operational’ state. When an SDO has been received by the controller no further communication takes place until the service has been acknowledged (or a timeout occurs).

The EM100 uses expedited transfer only i.e. each communication is contained within one frame (not sent over several). For CANopen purposes an EM100 module is the ‘Server’ and CAN Master is the ‘Client’.

Approved Applications The term ‘Approved’ applies whenever the weighing application is intended to be used for ‘legal-for- trade’ weighing – that is, trade transactions and certain medical applications. Such applications are bound by the legal metrology regulations of the relevant governments around the world, most countries will comply with either the relevant ENs (Euro Norms) or the relevant OIML (Organisation Internationale de Métrologie Légale) recommendations.
