I am trying to add a Curtis 1226BL Drive to my Codesys project. The network is working fine but I can't figure out how to create the Canopen i/o mapping. Anyone done this? Anyone got an EDS file that works?
Regards
Simon

I have no answer but we are trying to integrate a Curtis 1229 and neither Curtis nor their distributor is very interested in helping us beyond answer the most basic quesions. When we do get in touch with someone it seems like we are annoying them.
We did get someone to tell us that, at least for the 1229 that it doesn't really support CanOPEN but they sent us an eds file. They said that other people have made it work by modifying the eds file themselves. Of course, they didn't know how the other people modified the eds file to make it work.
I have CANopen Architect and made my own eds file. This lets us get the bus up but we haven't been able to confirm any data transfers yet.
Keep us posted on your endeavors and if we figure out anything I'll post it here.

Subject: Curtis 1229-4105 CANopen (CiA 301 / CiA 402)
Hello everyone,
I am developing a battery-powered industry vehicle using a Curtis 1229-4105 motor controller together with a Siemens S7-1200 PLC and an HMS (Ixxat) CANopen Master.
I am looking for someone who has practical experience with the Curtis 1229-4105 CANopen implementation.
I would appreciate your help with the following questions:
Does the Curtis 1229-4105 support only CANopen CiA 301, or does it also support CiA 402?
Is an EDS file available for this controller?
Is the CANopen Object Dictionary available?
Has anyone successfully communicated with the Curtis 1229-4105 from a Siemens S7 PLC or another CANopen master?
Are the CANopen PDOs and Object Dictionary based on the standard CiA profile, or are they Curtis-specific?
Any documentation, examples, or practical experience would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
