The CANopen Device Monitor (CDM) is a powerful yet cost-effective software tool for easy configuration of one ore more CANopen devices. It makes possible the direct access to the object directory of connected nodes and provides NMT and LSS functionality.
The CDM can read out and configure the object directory, even if there is no EDS available for the respective device. Quick and convenient access to the entire device functionality provided by a representation of the object directory in a concise tree structure.
The CDM is capable of storing and reading a device configuration in so called DCF (Device Configuration File). Configuration of CANopen devices from existing DCF files is also possible. An automatic network scan detects all reachable CANopen nodes quickly.
The CDM has a built-in script language. Using the script language user-specific extensions can be easily created. Therefore the CDM comes with a corresponding high-level API. Using the imbedded control panels, you get direct access to CDM functionality and to all implemented CANopen services.
The CDM is the ideal tool, especially for CANopen device development and service. You benefit from significantly reduced development times thanks to automated test procedures that now become possible. Using device-specific interfaces for configuration, the CDM provides you with an all-round service tool for CANopen devices.
Corresponding demo projects are included in the delivery package. You can find a demo-version of the CDM on our web site. A plug-in is offered for configuration of Safety Relevant Data Objects (SRDO).
