CANopen

Description

CANopen is originally designed for motion-oriented control systems, but today is used in a variety of field applications. It is an object-based, high-level communication protocol with an Object Dictionary, accessible by a 16-bit index, providing the connection point between the interface and the application program. The CANopen provides standardized communication objects for real-time data, special functions, configuration data, and network management. It is based on the CAN (Controller Area Network) protocol that covers the physical and data link layer, with CANopen covering the top five layers. CANopen devices are not strictly Master-Slave or peer-peer devices, where one device can be Master to another, but at the same time be Slave, depending on the network demands. The data rates of CANopen can be adjusted with ranges from 10kbit/s to 1000kbit/s.
