Using the CANopen library in LabView to implement a VI in a node that serves as slave.

[XIII]

We are working on a project using LabView and the CAN bus. I do also have the CANopen library for LabView. I would like to ask if anyone knows how to use this library in a way that one node acts as master and the others as slaves. Is this possible? In which way do I have to configure the

blocks? Could anyone provide me with an example?

Thank you very much

Hi,

the LabVIEW CANopen Library only provides functions to implement a CANopen master.
To implement a slave device you will have to use the basic NICAN VIs.

Some people have already done that and may be willing to provide you with some example code.

There is a special forum CAN & Device Net for this topic, you should ask there.
