CAN 400, communication module

The CAN 400 module of Systeme Helmholz GmbH permits connection of CAN stations with the programmable controller. It is for use in an S7-400* from Siemens.
The module can be slotted either into the central controller or into the expansion unit.
The CAN 400 modules support both CAN 2.0A (11 Bit) and CAN 2.0B (29 Bit) frames with a free selectable baudrate of 10 kBit/s to 1 Mbit/s. The CAN 400 module can also be run as Layer 2, CANopen Master or CANopen Slave.
The CAN 400 module contains the scripts „Power On“, „Stop -> Run“, „Run-> Stop“, „Power Off“. IDs relevant to the programmable controller can be prefiltered using a 5-level acceptance mask.
In CAN 400 modules, 16 free settable timers up to a resolution of 1ms are available. Each timer can trigger a free programmable CAN frame. In that way, it is simple to implement synchronous protocols commonly used in drive and servo control using the CAN 400 module.

Note
Information about the parameterization software CANParam and about the data handling blocks for the PLC you will find under CAN Software.

When first used, data handling blocks are required for the PLC.
