3.14.2 Transfer configuration
To transfer the master configuration, go to the “Transfer” option under “Configuration” menu,
press the “F8” key, or click on the
button.
During the transmission of the master configuration, the ladder program developed by the user as
well as the CANopen communication will be interrupted. After the transmission is completed, the ladder
program is executed again and the master reinitializes the CANopen network (runs the initialization
services and configures all slaves).
The following window appears in case the communication with the CANopen master via Modbus
is not available:
In this case, check the serial cable connection between the serial port on the PC and the board
serial connector. Besides that, verify the serial configuration set in the WSCAN software as well as the
board configuration.
To access the serial configuration (see Figure 67) go to the “Configure Serial” option under
“Communication” menu or press the “Shift + F8” keys at the same time.
3.14.3 Online monitoring
After transmitting the master configuration, may be necessary to monitor the devices to check if
all configured devices are connected to the network and effectively communicating. To monitor the
network devices go to the “Online Monitoring” option under “Communication” menu, press the “F9” key,
or click on the
button.
