CAN in AutomationCANopen
Answers
Basic communication features are very similar since both protocol types are based on CAN.
One difference is that DeviceNet only allows up to 64 nodes in one network segment, CANopen up to 127.
Top answer
DeviceNet has a stricter physical layout specification. This allows a higher level of standard and plug-and-play support.
CANopen is more flexible than DeviceNet when it comes to supporting communication functions and physical implementation.
