6 Kickstart Modules

6.3 Motor Access / CANopen Node

Depending on the template, different modules / module names are available, i.e. the modules do not always have all the functions described
here.

The

CANopen Node module offers a basic configuration screen for any type of CANopen node, e.g. a third-party servo drive, I/O module

or sensor device.

The

Parameter editor table contains a list of CANopen objects and their values, similar to the

Object Editor

.

For the selected object, additional display and editing controls are shown below the table. These elements are configurable by changing the
UI Format column in

Design Mode.

NOTICe

The appearance and behavior of the

Parameter editor depends on the edit Mode setting. Some of the functionality

described below is only relevant to specific Edit Mode settings.

Parameter editor functions

Read

Read the value of a parameter, or of the entire list, depending on the Edit Mode.

Write

Write to the device the value of a selected parameter, or of the entire list, depending on the Edit Mode.

Store

Store the written parameters permanently. I.e. the CANopen device will continue to use these values after a voltage reset. This function is
used after writing modified values using the

Write function.

Reset

Reset all device parameters to the factory settings.

Design Mode

Allows adding and removing parameters from the list, as well as editing the

UI Format and Comment columns, to modify the display and

editing controls used for this element.

In

Design Mode you can:

• Add more objects: Drag data objects from the

Object Editor

and drop them on the Parameter Editor. Alternatively,

Copy data objects

from the

Object Editor

and

Paste them into the parameter table.

• Modify the parameter's

Name, UI Format and Comment. The UI Format configures the UI elements that are displayed for the

parameter, as described in the UI Format documentation. The

Comment defines the additional description text shown below the name

in the UI elements' section.

• Apply Scaling factors and formulas, in the same way as for the

Object Editor

.

• Modify the Edit Mode.

NOTICe

User Level 2 is required for accessing

Design Mode.
