Elements and functions

The table below describes the different areas which make up the master configuration screen:

Read	Number	Function
1	Tab	The tab in the foreground indicates the type of screen displayed. In this case, it is the configuration screen.
2	Module	This area is made up of the abbreviated heading of the processor equipped with a CANopen port.
3	Channel	This zone allows you to select the communication channel to be configured. By clicking on the device, you display the tabs: Description : gives the characteristics of the built-in CANopen port, Inputs/outputs objects: allows pre-symbolizing of the input/output objects, By clicking on a channel, you display the tabs: Config . enables you to declare and configure the CANopen master, Debug : accessible in online mode only, Fault: accessible in online mode only.
4	General parameters	This field enables you to: associate the CANopen bus to an application task: MAST which is the master task, FAST which is the rapid task. The tasks are asynchronous in relation to exchanges on the bus.
5	Configuration	This field enables you to: configure the PLC internal memory addresses where inputs from the CANopen devices will periodically be copied. configure the PLC internal memory addresses where outputs from the CANopen devices will periodically be read. configure the parameters of the CANopen bus.
