Process data objects (PDOs)
In order to transfer the data of the port via a communication medium such as CAN, they must be
assigned to a process data object.
• The assignment of the interface/process data object via which a date is sent or received can be
made automatically or manually. The assignment is defined in the port editor when the port is
created.
• A process data object can serve as a container for several ports. Several ports can thus be
transferred by a process data object.
• The Process data objects tab serves to create and parameterise process data objects (PDOs).
