Press release from: emtas GmbH

emtas GmbH announces the release of version 1.0 of their CANopen Slave and Master stacks. The CANopen Slave Basic version is meant for the development of small CANopen Slaves with basic functionality. The Master/Slave version can be used to develop sophisticated CANopen slave or master applications. The stacks are written completely in ANSI-C and comply with most of the MISRA-C rules. The hardware-specific interfaces are separated in driver packages which allow a straight-forward adaption of the stacks to different microcontrollers. Driver packages are already available for wide-spread microcontrollers, among others various ARM or Cortex variants. The development of drivers by customers can be realized in short time thanks to the clearly defined interface.
With the help of the included CANopen application design tool “CANopen DeviceDesigner” the user is supported with the fast and cost-saving development of CANopen applications. The developer only needs a few clicks to combine the object dictionary from predefined profiles. The CANopen DeviceDesigner generates an object dictionary and initialization functions of the stack in ANSI-C. Additionally, a consistent EDS- and XDD file as well as a HTML documentation of the device is created by the tool. Numerous ready-to-run examples, a user and a reference manual together with the highly documented source code simplify the integration of the CANopen stacks into own applications.
“Already during the development of the stack the software was used by various pilot customers and in own development projects. In addition with successful tests by the current CANopen Conformance Test a high reliability of the software is ensured already in version 1.0”, explains Andreas Boebel, CEO of emtas.
The license of the CANopen stacks is characterized by a single license fee. The CANopen stacks can be used for various CANopen projects without royalties at a development site. To ensure that the products meet the current state of standardization the company is member of the CAN in Automation e.V. (CiA). As already in the passed years the founders and employees of emtas are active in working groups of the CiA to participate in the development of CANopen specifications.
