CANopen is an open, CAN-based communication protocol. Its broad spectrum of applications encompasses the fields of transport and control systems, measuring, medicine, railways, maritime applications and many more – wherever the combination of high flexibility and fast data transfer is required. The experience of many component manufacturers and users flowed into the specification, creating an established standard that is maintained by the user organization CAN in Automation e.V. (CiA)..

Features and Advantages:

ProCANopen allows fast, efficient configuring of complete CANopen networks, as well as for individual devices. The user get pinpoint support in all project phases: planning, development, startup and servicing. The wide range of functions and intuitive user interface allow the user to concentrate immediately on defining the plant parameters. ProCANopen configures automatically under the CANopen rules. This considerably reduces the time required for configuring, even in complex systems. The quality of the configurations is also enhanced, which in turn increases plant safety.
