Welcome visit Our WebSite:

http://copperhillmedia.com/CANopenBook.html

Providing a detailed look at both CAN and CANopen, this book examines those technologies in the context of embedded networks. There is an overview of general embedded networking and an introduction to the primary functionality provided by CANopen. Everything one needs to know to configure and operate a CANopen network using off-the-shelf components is described, along with details for those designers who want to build their own CANopen nodes. The wide variety of applications for CAN and CANopen is discussed, and instructions in developing embedded networks based on the protocol are included. In addition, references and examples using MicroCANopen, PCANopen Magic, and Vector's high-end development tools are provided.

About the Authors:

Olaf Pfeiffer is a cofounder of the Embedded Systems Academy, conducts CAN and CANopen training classes, and consults clients on their embedded networking requirements. He is a regular speaker at the Embedded Systems Conference, the Real-Time and Embedded Computing show, and at the International CAN Conference.
