5.3 FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions
See in the following some frequently asked questions and the appropriate answers. Also regard the
example files and projects provided with the document.
5.3.1 CANopen Functionality
F1: Concerning the CANopen slave configuration: Is it true, that the object list gets filled via
the Parameter Manager?
A: Yes
F2: Can the object list also be created/extended in the »PLC Designer« code? What is to be
done?
A: The object list for list type „Variables“ can be generated out of the code by using pragmas. (For
how to use pragmas see also the »PLC Designer« user manual resp. online help).
See in the following an example, where in a global variables list Pragmas are inserted, which
will effect that the respective variables will be entered in a list in the Parameter Manager. (The
appropriate configuration of the index ranges must be done in the »PLC Designer« target
settings in category „Networkfunctionality “).
VAR_GLOBAL
g_byCANNodeID : BYTE := 16#10; (* CANopen NodeID normally read from a rotary switch. *)
(*
Format of the ParameterManager entry:
{parameter list=<name> [ name= index=16 subindex= accesslevel= accessright= value= ] }
Possible keys and its values:
name
: The name is only for information purposes
(not shown in PLC configuration or EDS file).
index : Index of the variable.
subindex : SubIndex of the variable.
accesslevel : Not used for CAN, but must be defined.
- low :
- middle :
- high :
accessright : Accessright values:
- "read only" : Tx PDO (Input, Master's view)
- "write only" : Rx PDO (Output, Master's view)
value
: Default value.
