[CanOpen Basics]

Hi Tim

I'm finally working on my first CanOPEN project comprising of a V1040, 1 x Weiss (Acopos) Rotary Servo, 3 x Festo Servo's and 1 x Sick Flexisoft safety controller.

I've bought (on your recomendation) the CanOpen Magic Pro software, waiting for the USB adapter to clear customs!

A question though.

The Festo servo's are DSP402 which appears to be an add on to DS301? From looking at the EDS file it seems there are standard 402 index's such as 6041 -Statusword. I am planning to map relevant 402 index's to PDO's. Do you foresee any problems?

Thank-you. Your help file has been extremely useful.

Very useful reference. To prove I read it, Pg 6, 2nd last paragraph I think MB123 should be 128.

Like I said in my PM's this has been a great help. For the benefit of others this is also the identical comm's structure to the Beckhoff BK5120 I/O module's. CanOpen Documentation here: http://www.tritek.co.../io/bk51x0e.pdf

Question: NMT status Integer (MI125 in your example) Where do I find a list of stati? (Plural of status!) I have looked through Uni and CanOpen documentation, but missed it.
