  • Page 144 Released Manual 35136 GS Series The above state diagram is taken from the CANopen specification. Initialization: NMT and DVPII: The initialization state is used to open the CAN ports and to initialize the CANopen stack. After this is done the DVPII or NMT will go to the pre-operational state automatically. It will send the boot-up message.
  • Page 145 All SDO data will be requested when the NMT master goes from Pre-Operational to Operational. Woodward gives the designed application the option to request all information under application control. This is to ensure that when the slave devices are powered, cycled, or added, their information gets updated.
