National Instruments PXI-8531 PXI CANopen Interface Module

The PXI-8531 (Part Number: 781061-01) is a 1-Port CANopen Interface Module, made for creating applications with the NI-Industrial Communications for CANopen controller. CANopen is the application layer that is set on the physical CAN layer normally utilized for modern automated applications. It was intended for control systems of movement-oriented machines, such as taking care of frameworks. However, it is currently utilized as part of various items and applications, including medical equipment, cross-country vehicles, oceanic gadgets, public transport, and construction automation. The NI PXI-8531 can transmit/receive data processing objects (PDOs) and data service objects (SDOs) according to the CiA-DS301. It likewise has a SDO batch editor with EDS file integration and LSS services support for slave node configuration.

The NI PXI 8531 CANopen Interface Module provides a high level API to effortlessly deal with the CANopen system and its gadgets. This total 32 bit driver is intended for use in Windows Vista/XP focal points and continuous LabVIEW focal points like the PXI and NI mechanical controllers. The configuration instruments are integrated in the LabVIEW project to give online access to the system, master and slave gadget parameters. Likewise, CANopen gadget signals are consequently recognized and mapped to move I/O factors, so you can undoubtedly read and write from the I/O of the gadget without an intensive learning of the CANopen protocol.
