CANopen Architect Professional

SKU #: ES-SFT-CAEDP

The capabilities of CANopen® nodes are described by Electronic Datasheets (EDS) files. When CANopen® modules are sold or made available to third parties these EDS files serve as a standardized and easy to use format for describing how CANopen® nodes can be integrated into networks. They can also serve as an in-house documentation of the node.

CANopen Magic Professional is a professional grade CANopen development tool, indispensable for assisting in the development and debugging of CANopen based networks. Using CANopen Magic Professional, a CANopen network may be monitored, configured and analyzed. Timings of message transmissions can be observed, allowing comparison against network specifications. Nodes may be quickly and easily configured and test messages generated with a minimum of effort.

CANopen Magic Professional is the professional version of CANopen Magic Standard. Although there is a small overlap in the features and functionality between the Standard and Pro versions, the Pro version contains a large number of enhancements and improvements over the regular version, making it more suitable for professional development assistance.
