Helmholz TB20-C Bus Coupler CANopen® Slave

Helmholz TB20-C, Bus Coupler CANopen® Slave

The CANopen® bus coupler is designed to connect a CAN bus to TB20 peripheral modules. It supports the CANopen® protocol as per DS 301 and uses the DSP-401 profile for digital and analog I/O modules.

A functioning TB20 configuration will always require a bus coupler and at least one peripheral module, but can accommodate up to 64 modules of any kind connected in series with the bus coupler. The CANopen® bus coupler supports hot-swapping for replacing modules during operation.

This coupler makes it possible to use SDOs to freely access all I/O values, parameters, and diagnostics, and can manage up to 256 bytes of I/O data with the PDO protocol.
