{tip CANopen ::

 is a standardized application for distributed automation systems based on CAN (Controller Area Network) offering the following performance features: 

• Transmission of time-critical process data according to the producer consumer principle
• Standardized device description (data, parameters, functions, programs) in the form of the so-called \"object dictionary\". Access to all \"objects\" of a device with standardized transmission protocol according to the client-server principle
• Standardized services for device monitoring (node guarding/heartbeat), error signalisation (emergency messages) and network coordination (\"network management\")
• Standardized system services for synchronous operations (synchronization message), central time stamp message
• Standardized help functions for configuring baud rate and device identification number via the bus
• Standardized assignment pattern for message identifiers for simple system configurations in the form of the so-called \"predefined connection set\"

(The remote I/O devices are compatible with any controller that supports Modbus or CANopen protocols)
