Press release from: emtas GmbH

Merseburg, October 2017
After the release of the CANopen FD specification CiA 1301 1.0 by the CAN in Automation e.V. emtas now announces their CANopen FD Master/Slave protocol stack.

Based on its field proven CANopen protocol stacks emtas has developed their new CANopen FD Master/Slave protocol stack, which can be used to develop CANopen FD master and slaves devices. The stack is delivered as source code for various targets and licensed under a royalty-free license.

The CANopen FD protocol stack has been implemented according to the CiA specification 1301 1.0. This latest version of the specification has been developed by the SIG application layer in CAN in Automation e.V. with active participation of emtas' engineers. The released stack supports all new CANopen FD features such as PDOs with up to 64 bytes, extended emergency messages, the new error history and the new Universal SDO (USDO) service, which includes new possibilities such as broadcast and routing of USDO messages. The stack can be used on various embedded micro controllers which already support CAN FD. It has been successfully tested on a STM32H7, NXP LPC546xx, Microchip's Atmel SAM C21 and with Microchip's external CAN FD controller MCP2517FD. In addition to these embedded platforms the protocol stack can also be used on Windows or Linux with various CAN FD interfaces from different manufacturers.

Together with the stack emtas has updated its CANopen DeviceDesigner – a PC tool to design CANopen and CANopen FD devices. This tool generates code for the object dictionary and configuration header files to configure the stack and it generates as well electronic device description files based on the object dictionary of the devices to ensure the implementation and documentation are always in sync.

Also emtas’ CANopen DeviceExplorer has been updated for CANopen FD with its new features. The CDE is a versatile CANopen FD configuration and analysis tool.
Supporting CANopen and CANopen FD the tool is available for Windows, Linux and OS X.
Experience the emtas products live at the SPS IPC Drives fair 2017 in Nuremberg at the emtas booth 125 in hall 6. The exhibition takes place in November 28 to 30.
