CAN:
Configuration
software There is only one type of software that can effect the configuration of this
network:
• VTWIN
This software requires the setting of parameters that coincide with one
another.
The parameters that have to be set in the VTWIN project of every
terminal connected in the network are:
• Network address of the terminal.
• SDO
• PDO
CAN:
Connection
The figure below shows the connection of VT with devices in a CAN net-
work, in a master VT and slave formation.
Theoretically the network admits 128 devices, but the real limit depends on
how many logical channels are activated. The maximum number of chan-
nels is 64 SDO and 64 PDO.
