CANopen (Logic)
The Logic bus is used to operate controllers which
carry out simple movements,
do not have a Motion functionality,
are controlled via PLC functionalities only.
CANopen (Motion)
The Motion bus is used to control controllers which carry out e.g. synchronised
movements.
The "L-force Motion" runtime software contains the PLCopen libraries and supports the
SoftMotion control to control the "Servo Drives 9400 HighLine CiA402" series and the
"ECSxM" axis module.
4.1.1
Combination with other bus systems
The CANopen bus system can be combined with PROFIBUS. This makes sense if not all field
devices are available for the same bus system or a Motion bus (CANopen) is required in
parallel to the PROFIBUS (as Logic bus). The bus systems are synchronised in the control.
Note!
• A mixed operation is only possible with Industrial PCs which have two
additional slots for communcation cards. A mixed operation is not possible
with the "Command Station".
• Release 2.5 does not facilitate a combination of PROFIBUS and EtherCAT.
• In the control configuration, the PROFIBUS master must be in the first
position – upstream to the CANopen motion nodes.
