These are all the files. I'm not a programmer, I'm just the most able of the people I work with I guess. I never used an EDS file. If someone has a manual for configuring my CAN messages more efficiently then I could redo everything. My current process for adding messages is a bit cumbersome. Thanks!

Hi again, I have the same problem that I had in May last year: I can't edit my CAN ID's. Last post I didn't really get an answer, just a cause. Now I'm connecting another component with an ID that's already taken. So I really need to change an ID but it's locked in the PDO list (can't edit or delete). Any help? I know how to prevent it now but not how to delete or edit the existing ID. Codesys 3.5.14 Thanks!

eschwellinger that's exactly what I did but now I can't change the ID's

I don't know which files you need so I uploaded a bunch

2020-05-24T10:05:35.166000Z2020-05-24T10:05:35.166000Zmoshtaraqhttps://forge.codesys.com/u/moshtaraq/profile/https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/7b37c57a0c/?limit=25#70a2

sgronchi, could you elaborate on that some more? I did the following: 1. added the CANbus device 2. added CAN local device 3. edit I/O area, add area and then the variables 4. mapping to gvl variables That's all I did and the first ones I did aren't locked.... When you asked for the EDS file, I had to look it up.

I had not heard of a EDS file till yesterday so I didn't do anything with exporting or importing...

So how do I change it? Was my original question.

I had never heard of a EDS file to be honest.... I edited them with add i/o area and the mapped them to the GVL...

How can I fix that or is it a fixed thing that those are not changeable?

Here you go. I have two messages that aren't greyed out and those are the first ones I added.

Hi, I need to add some new CAN messages to my program but I can't change the ID's on them. The PDO's are greyed out for some reason. Any help is appreciated! Jens 3.5.14 btw

Well the thing is: the plc is the only CANopen device in our network.

I'm using V3.5.14. It's the latest package my plc supports.

Hi agian, I'm using CANopen to do some communication on a boat. I was wondering if it was possible to set it in operational mode from startup. Now I always have to send 0x000 01 00 from another node to start in up. thanks in advance Jens

The problem I'm facing is the following: I'm used to Arduino programming and having thousands of examples and documentation is very basic and understandable to beginners and experts. I can't for the life of me find any easy documentation on anything I'm doing so I'm pushed into experimenting. If I google canl2 I find nothing that helps me in the slightest.... If I google something for an arduino project (even a super complicated one) I find hundreds of sites that have examples and tutorials on how...

I thought it would've given me more options/flexibility. This is a tiny part for my bachelor thesis so I thought using a normalized and well known piece of software would add value to my thesis. I looked into the CANL2Config but that seems way to complicated from what I can find in the manual from Topcon. If I google it I get 0 results btw.

I've read the different types/modes but none seem to fit my needs? The Opus display is the only CANopen device in our network so I have no idea how to implement that synchronous mode. I set both parameters on the same value but still 181 gets through 5x more than 281.

2020-04-03T17:10:08.860000Z2020-04-03T17:10:08.860000Zmoshtaraqhttps://forge.codesys.com/u/moshtaraq/profile/https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/832bc92b74/?limit=25&page=1#a388

I've been playing around a bit with sending and receiving messages over CAN. For my project I need to cyclically send some messages to a couple receivers. When I try to send more than one message (more than one ID) cyclically then 1 message (ID181) is sent 10 times and the other (ID281) 1 time. I know that 181 has a higher priority but when I configure it to send both messages every second, I expect it to send both every second. But only 181 gets through. What parameters do I need to put in 'Event...

Looks like I cheered to soon.... I get warnings: C0373 'Application.GVL.TPDO_byte_12' is not a valid assignement target (byte_34,56 and 78 also) And an error from EMCY service: PDO not processed due to length error (PDO receiving CANopen device detected a mismatch of the PDO length) I sent 4 bytes on ID 201 and the PDO has 4 bytes so I don't get it...

I've read the following message when the display boots: ID: 701, Data: 10 In the tutorial it says to send the following to put the display in operational mode: ID: 000, data 01 00 Now the error is gone and I recieve a bunch of messages on ID 181 which seems to be what is configured. Thanks for the help!

I've read the following message when the display boots: ID: 701, Data: 10 Is this the message it sends to get a confirmation? I still get the error on codesys. What do I need to send to confirm that things are working? I'm using an arduino with a CAN shield to simulate sending and reading in stead of the full network we have in the boat (which I can't access due to the lockdown).

What acknowledge message do I need to send for it to boot up correctly? Where can I find this info?

Is that with or without the CAN2LCONFIG files present? Thanks for testing! I'm kinda stranded for the moment cause I can't access our hardware at the university due to the lockdown. I'll improvise something with what I have :).

We have no plc-programmers, we all had the same education. I probably one of the best programmers of our team but we never had to install or alter our software, just programming.

We are a group of engineering students working on a sponsor-funded project: Uantwerp Solar Boat Team. We had a sponsor agreement with a company for the display in the past but they won't respond anymore, not even when I asked for a quote to buy a new one for our new boat we're building. Maybe I contacted the wrong people from topcon?

I added the driver and set the baud rate. All the other parameters are a mystery to me and the 'bus is not running' message persists. Is there really no documentation on how to do this? I feel like wasting your time with my lack of knowledge...

How do I add a driver? I see on the canbus parameters: bus state = -1 = no driver. Remember I'm not a programmer so a tutorial or something would help.

Hi, I'm not a programmer by far, I'm an engineering student and I've programmed in twincat before but not codesys. I'm working on a Topcon OPUS A3 display. I'm following a tutorial provided by that company. Visualizations work fine and I can program everything no problem until I tried setting up the CAN communication. I'm getting two warnings of what seem like version problems and a bunch of errors. The previous library errors I've been able to fix by downloading missing libraries but I have no idea...
