Node-RED Nodes for CANopen modules
node-red-contrib-canopen-mcan
Node-RED Nodes for MicroControl CANopen devices
With these Nodes you can connect MicroControl CANopen modules to Node-RED.
Requirements
- µMIC.200 controller
- CANopen server daemon (Comet)
Supported devices
Currently the following CANopen devices are supported by this plugin:
- µCAN.4.ai-BOX
- µCAN.4.ao-BOX
- µCAN.4.ti-BOX
- µCAN.8.dio-BOX
- µCAN.8.pwm-BOX
How to use
A single node represents either an input or an output of a CANopen device. As such, a node has only either one input or one output. After dragging a node to the flow you need to configure the CAN interface, node-ID and channel number.
Node configuration
A node is defined by the following properties:
- CAN channel - i.e. the used CAN interface on the µMIC.200 controller
- Node ID - i.e. the CANopen device address setting
- Input / Output channel - i.e. the input or output connected for the signal
