8.16 CANopen Interface (X6)
The interface for connection to the CAN bus (default 500kBaud). The integrated profile is based on
the communication profile CANopen DS301 and the drive profile DS402. The following functions are
available in connection with the integrated position controller:
Jogging with variable speed, reference traverse (zeroing), start motion task, start direct task, digital
setpoint provision, data transmission functions and many others.
Detailed information can be found in the CANopen manual. The interface is electrically isolated by
optocouplers, and is at the same potential as the RS232 interface. The analog setpoint inputs can
still be used.
With the optional expansion card -2CAN- the two interfaces for RS232 and CAN, which otherwise
use the same connector X6, are separated onto two connectorsðp.111).
AGND and DGND (connector X3) must be joined together !
CANbus cable
To meet ISO 11898 you should use a bus cable with a characteristic impedance of 120W. The
maximum usable cable length for reliable communication decreases with increasing transmission
speed. As a guide, you can use the following values which we have measured, but they are not to
be taken as assured limits:
Cable data: Characteristic impedance 100-120W
Cable capacitance max. 60nF/km
Lead resistance (loop) 159.8W/km
Cable length, depending on the transmission rate
Transmission rate (kbaud) max. cable length (m)
1000 20
500 70
250 115
Lower cable capacitance (max. 30nF/km) and lower lead resistance
(loop, 115 W/km) make it possible to achieve greater distances.
(Characteristic impedance 150 ± 5WÞterminatingresistor 150 ± 5W).
For EMC reasons, theSubD connector housing must fulfill the following conditions:
— metal or metallised housing
— provision for cable shielding connection in housing, large-area connection
