2 Introduction This document explains the initial commissioning of the PN/CAN-Gateway CANopen Master. The latest version of the documentation can be found at www.helmholz.de or scan the QR code directly. Quickstart Guide PN/CAN-Gateway CANopen Master | Version 4 | 05.10.2023...
4.2 CAN-Bus The CAN bus is connected to the "CAN" interface using a SUB-D CAN bus D-sub-connector plug (e.g. Helmholz CAN bus connector) to the "CAN" interface. The PN/CAN gateway does not contain a CAN terminating CAN Low resistor. If the PN/CAN gateway is connected to the end of a...
5 Download and Installation of GSDML file The latest GSDML file is available on the website www.helmholz.de. Go to the product page of the "PN/CAN Gateway CANopen Master" and then to the download area or follow the link stored in the QR code. There you can download the GSDML file of the “PN/CAN Gateway CANopen Master”...
6 Configuring the PN/CAN-Gateway Add the "PN/CAN-Gateway CANopen" to the project and connect it to your PROFINET network. By calling the properties a unique PROFINET name should be assigned to the PN/CAN gateway and the IP address should be checked for plausibility. The name of the configured device must be assigned to the physical device later (see Chap.
Set the CAN bit rate and the CAN master node ID. In some applications a SYNC telegram or heartbeat telegrams of the master is necessary for operation. The other "PN/CAN CO" slot entries do not contain any parameters. 6.2 Add and configure a CANopen Device A "CANopen Device"...
6.3 Add and configure PDOs (process data object) TPDOs (Transmit Process Data Objects) are data that are sent from the CANopen slave to the PLC (input data from PLC view). RPDOs (Receive Process Data Objects) are data sent from the PLC to the CANopen slave (output data from PLC view).
When the configuration has run correctly, the blue "Mode" LED should blink. To set the PROFINET name, the Helmholz “IPSet” Tool can also be used, which can be downloaded free of charge from the Helmholz website.

8 Programming in the PLC No handling blocks are required in the PLC for simple operation. The control and status query of the PN/CAN gateway can be performed directly via the I/O image. For the startup of the example project, the value 2 must be written in the output word in "Master Control"...

8.5 SDO Communication An SDO communication with the slaves can be executed after the initialization phase of the PN/CAN gateway both in the Pre-Operational and in the Operational mode. Only one SDO job can be executed at a time. Both reading and writing of SDOs is possible. Refer to the manual for details on programming the SDO communication channel of the PN/CAN gateway.
