Hi, I'm newer with bus Can and I'm try to comunicate my MDC2130 with CanOpen Bus with my PC with serial adapter USB/Can (www.fischl.de/usbtin/). With usbtinViewer I read the controller Heartbeat but I don't Know how I can send a command to read VAR or Counter,.... The goal is make a serial app to send command to my controller using VAR user variable with MicroBasic Script code to move a motor

Can anyone help me? Thanks in advanced

I suppose MiniCAN will be adequate to your requirements. Please read in user manual section 13 and especially section Using MiniCAN Mode at page 120.

Thanks niko, finally I can send commands with CanOpen. To read VAR 1 I send "t601 4 4F 0621 01" in hex codification. If someone need an explanation, please contact with me.

And now, I need to create Emergency state in mbs script controller and detect it with canopen. It's pisible?. If affirmative, how can I do it?

Thanks

What do you mean emergency state? You want to notify the master node about an emergency?

The idea is if my script go to a internal error state, for example a incorrect value of analogic sensor, y would like to send this error to others node

So you want to make an emergency mechanism.

You can choose one general purpose variable (VAR) and fill it with a value that will be interpreted in emergency state.

This VAR needs to be part of the TPDOs (VAR1 - VAR8) which periodically will be sent to the master node.
