<div class="markdown_content"><p>On a PC with the Control Win, this is probably related to the fact that the CAN drivers are not loaded.</p> <p>Go to the folder where your Control Win Configuration file is:<br/> - E.g. C:\ProgramData\CODESYS\CODESYSControlWinV3x64\E1FA7ABE<br/> - Open the CODESYSControl.cfg<br/> - Remove the semi-colon in front of the CAN driver you want to use (section ComponentManager).<br/> - Set the component ID to the next number in the list (e.g. Component.8)<br/> - Save this file and restart the Control Win.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Update: This initial issue was when using a Linux target PLC. Since then I have created a Win10 target PC and the Codesys software reported an issue associated with the device version (see attached).</p> <p>I am assuming this is an incompatibility with the xml file from the manufacturer and the firmware version on the module and I am chasing this up with Beckhoff.</p> <p>Question is, why would this not report with a Linux target?</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi,<br/> I have been trying to get a CANbus device working with Codesys 3.5SP19 patch1 via a Beckhoff EL671 gateway without success. I have the CANOpen_Manager and CANopen device configured but this will not run. Is there any code required to kickstart the CANbus comms into action?</p> <p>Regards Trevor</p></div>
