3.1 The PDOs
The status is sent constantly to the CAN controller. The TPDO1 is sent up to 320 times per
second. This has to cover all installed modules. With a 64 LDM installation this gives 5
measurement per second per LDM, a 32 LDM installation will give 10 measurements per
second per LDM. Speed could be increased with a 16 LDM installation to 20 measurements
per second per LDM (only possible with special firmware for Gateway).
The TPDO2 is sent every time a LDM finishes a filling cycle. It has the same format and
fields as the TPDO1 except it contains the DOSED NET weight.
The format of the TPDO1 and TPDO2 is:
32 bit 16 Bit 8 bits 8 Bit
Weight Module Status Module number Gateway
State
The first field is a single precision float value containing weight information,
Gross or Net values if it is a TDPO1, and the Dosed NET weight if it is a TPDO2.
The next 16 bit field contains the module status as described below:
$0001 - Under range,
$0002 - Over range,
$0004 - Not within Zero range (not yet implemented, zero),
$0008 - Exactly zero,
$0010 - No motion, still stand, steady state,
$0020 - Tare set,
$0040 - Preset tare (0=tare is measured, 1=tare is set by user),
$0080 - Invalid weighing (wire-break, A/D ref. out of range),
$0100 - Set-point 0 (source>limit),
$0200 - Set-point 1,
$0400 - Set-point 2,
$0800 - Set-point 3,
$1000 - Filling in progress,
$2000 - Filling has completed.
$4000 - Average ready,
$8000 - Cold start.
Module number is the module (LDM) from which the data originates (0..63).
Gateway state is the state of the CANopen Gateway itself. This field is formatted as
follows:
2 bit 2 Bit 4 Bit
cmd resp reserved
“cmd” is a modulo-4 counter that increments every time a command is received i.e.
every time a SDO is received by the Gateway. If the completion of the SDO setting
requires communication with a LDM on the backplane the user can monitor the “resp”
field to determine when the LDM has acknowledged the command.
“resp” is a modulo-4 counter that increments when a command has been processed
(and a result can be fetched). If a SDO has been received, it indicates when the
Gateway has finished processing the SDO.
