CANopen Configuration Manager - SYS TEC electronic GmbH

The concise presentation in a tree structure ensures fast and direct selection of individual nodes. The Object Link Table manages all available objects of all CANopen nodes in a concise matrix form. Two mappable objects can be bound into the Object Link Table by a simple mouse click. The corresponding PDO mapping and PDO linking is generated automatically by the CCM.

If necessary the CCM automatically creates network variables for programmable devices according to CiA specification 405. When a PDO linking is performed a corresponding variable declaration in accordance with IEC 61131-3 is stored in a separate file. They can later be transferred into your PLC program by simple cut & paste.

For simple master – slave connections, the PDO linking can be done based on the pre-defined connection set to reduce the configuration efforts to the master device. With the use of the pre-defined connection set configuration of the participating CANopen slave is no longer necessary. Only the DCF for the CANopen master (PLC) is required. That way, the CCM always ensures the consistency of the configuration.

Of course the free PDO linking is available for (unlimited) connections between any types of CANopen devices.

With PDO linking, the device configuration is saved as a DCF in the project folder. Optionally, the CCM supports direct storage of the configuration in the network. With a simple mouse click, it is transferred via the CAN-bus to the corresponding CANopen nodes and stored on the device.

The CCMbasic version makes it possible to set up network configurations based on the predefined connection set. The DCF generated can be read directly into the OpenPCS programming system.

The CCMpro version supports free PDO linking. It is also possible to directly transfer the network configuration to the CANopen devices.

CCMeval is a fully featured evaluation version. However, it is restricted to two nodes and a fixed bit rate.
