The DP/CAN-coupler links CANopen devices into a PROFIBUS-DP network.
The DP/CAN-coupler is a full-function CANopen Master. It supports network management, SYNC telegrams, and nodeguarding for monitoring the nodes.
On the PROFIBUS-DP, the DP/CAN-coupler is a normal node. The IO data of the CANopen nodes are placed on the Profibus in a transparent and freely configurable way. The DP/CAN-coupler is linked into the hardware configuration software via a GSD file and can be configured completely there. Further tools are not necessary.
On the PROFIBUS, all standard baudrates up to 12MBit/s are supported, on the CAN bus, up to 1MBit/s. The PROFIBUS address is set via a DIP switch. Parameterization of the CANopen nodes via SDO telegrams and management of emergency messages is also possible.
Alternatively, the DP/CAN-coupler can also be used as a CAN Layer 2 device on the CAN bus. This enables the connection of customer-specific CAN protocols via the PROFIBUS, too.
The DP/CAN-coupler is intended for mounting on the DIN sectional rail, and requires a 24V power supply. Because of its small width, it fits even into the smallest cabinets. DP/CAN coupler Ordering Data Order No. DP/CAN-coupler 700-650-CAN01
