aparian A-CANOR B CANopen Router B
INTRODUCTION
This quick start guide provides an basic overview of the installation, operation, and diagnostics of the Aparian CANopen Router Series B module. The CANopen Router/B provides intelligent data routing between either EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP/RTU232/RTU485 and the CANopen bus network. This allows the user to integrate CANopen devices into a Rockwell Logix platform (e.g., ControlLogix or CompactLogix) or any Modbus Master or Slave device with minimal effort. The module can be configured to be either a CANopen Master or CANopen Slave allowing the user to not only integrate CANopen devices into a Logix or Modbus system, but to also to use EtherNet/IP or Modbus devices in an existing CANopen network (by using the CANopen Router/B in Slave mode).
REQUIRED SOFTWARE
The CANopen Router/B requires Aparian Slate software to setup and configure. The software installation can be found at www.aparian.com/software/slate.
MODULE INSTALLATION
The module has two Ethernet ports located at the lower front of the module. There are also two ports at the bottom of the module for RS232/RS485 serial and power. The power port uses a three-way connector which is used for the DC power supply positive and negative (or ground) voltage as well as the earth connection. The at the front of the module there is a 5-way connector which is used for the CANopen network and can also be used for power. Both bottom and front power connectors can be plugged in at the same time. The nine-way connector is used to connect the RS232 and RS485 conductors for serial communication. The shield terminal can be used for shielded cable in high noise environments.
Description
The module LED will provide information regarding the system-level operation of the module. If the LED is red, then the module is not operating correctly. For example, if the module application firmware has been corrupted or there is a hardware fault the module will have a red Module LED. If the LED is green (flashing), then the module has booted and is running correctly without any application configuration loaded.If the LED is green (solid), then the module has booted and is running correctly with application configuration loaded. The Ethernet LED will light up when an Ethernet link has been detected (by plugging in a connected Ethernet cable). The LED will flash every time traffic is detected. This module has two Ethernet ports A and B. Each LEDs represents each specific port. The module Run LED will provide information regarding the operational state of the CANopen network. Solid Green – CANopen network is operational Flashing Green – CANopen network is pre-operational Blink Green – CANopen network is stopped.The Err LED will provide information regarding the operational condition of the CANopen devices.
CANopen Master
Solid Red – No configuration has been loaded on the CANopen Router.
Flashing Red – The primary interface (EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP) to the
CANopen Router has been lost.
Blink Red – There is an issue with at least one CANopen Slave device. Off
– There are no issues.CANopen Slave Solid Red – No configuration has been
loaded on the CANopen Router. Flashing Red – The primary interface
(EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP) to the CANopen Router has been lost. Blink Red –
There is an issue with at least one PDO in the CANopen Router when operating
as a CANopen Slave device. Off – There are no issues.The activity LED is used
for the external interface update. Every time there is a successful packet
received from the external interface (e.g. EtherNet/IP or Modbus) the LED will
flash green. The LED will flash red if there was an error with the received
external interface packet (e.g., Checksum error).
CANOPEN TERMINATION
All CANopen networks need to be terminated at the extremities (start and end point) of the communication conductor. The termination for the CANopen network can be enabled/disabled via the module configuration. Enabling the termination will connect an internal 120 Ohm resistor across the positive (+) and negative (-) conductors of the CANopen network.
