CAN communication with a PROFINET CPU, with the PN/CAN gateways from Helmholz this is easy to achieve!
Whether you want to communicate as a CANopen Master, CANopen Slave, via J1939 or as Layer 2. Helmholz has a suitable gateway for you.
The PN/CAN gateways are integrated by means of a GSDML file in the hardware configuration. This has the great advantage that the entire configuration is done from the engineering software.
The I/O data from the CAN participants is passed on transparently and can be processed directly in the PLC.
Additional software or handling blocks are therefore not required for these gateways.
Characteristics:
- CANopen Master, CANopen slave SAE J1939 or CAN Layer 2 protocol
- Up to 127 CANopen slaves possible
- SDO communication, emergency messages, node monitoring with heartbeat and node guarding
- Up to 512 CAN messages configurable in the Layer 2 variant
- CANopen slave profile 402, or customer specific
- Easy configuration with GSDML file, no additional software required
- Can be used with all PROFINET compatible programming environments
