The table describes the HMISCU CANopen master features:
Maximum number of slaves on the bus |
16 CANopen slave devices |
Maximum length of CANopen fieldbus cables |
According to the CAN specification (see Cable Length and Transmission Speed). |
Maximum number of PDOs managed by the master |
For each additional CANopen slave:
oThe application size increases by an average of 10 kbytes, which can result in a memory size overload.
oThe configuration initialization time at the startup increases, which can lead to a watchdog condition.
Although HMISCU does not restrict you from doing so, you should not exceed 16 CANopen slave modules (and/or 32 TPDOs and 32 RPDOs) for sufficient performance tolerance and to avoid performance degradation.
|
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION |
Do not connect more than 16 CANopen slave devices to the controller. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
NOTICE |
DEGRADATION OF PERFORMANCE |
Do not exceed 32 TPDOs and 32 RPDOs for the HMISCU Controller. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage. |

1 Part 1 and Part 2 of ISO 11898:2002 are equivalent to ISO 11898:1993.
2 The isolation of the rear module is 500 Vac RMS between the module and the terminal blocks connected to the rear module. The two parts reference the same functional ground (FE) through specific components designed to reduce effects of electromagnetic interference. These components are rated at 30 Vdc or 60 Vdc. This effectively reduces isolation of the entire system from the 500 Vac RMS.
3 A resistor (R) is needed on each end of the CAN field bus.

CANopen Data Transfer Settings
The CANopen networking concept is based on the international standard CAN. CANopen is defined as a uniform application layer by the DS301 specifications of the CiA (CAN in Automation).
The CANopen interface uses a D-SUB 9-pin plug connector. The plug is assigned with the CAN_H, CAN_L and, CAN_GND connections. CAN_H and CAN_L are the two conductors of the CAN bus. CAN_GND is the common reference potential.
NOTE:
oThe resistance of the cable value must be 70 mΩ/m (1.77 mΩ/in.) or less.
oTo minimize signal reflections from the end of the cable, a 120 Ω. (5%, 1/4 W maximum) line termination must be placed at both ends of the bus.
CANopen Communication Cable and Connectors
NOTE: CANopen communication cables and cable connectors are not supplied with the CANopen Master Unit. The user must prepare the cables.
D-SUB (DIN41652) connector compliant with CANopen Standard (CiA DR-303-1)
CANopen Recommended Transfer Cable
Transfer cable (a twisted pair cable with a shield) compliant with CANopen Standard (CiA DR-303-1)
