Standard

CANopen

Devices

You may also install one or more standard CANopen devices on an island. These

devices are not auto-addressable, and they must be installed at the end of the island

bus. If you want to install standard CANopen devices on an island, you need to use

an STB XBE 2100 CANopen extension module as the last module in the last

segment.

Because standard CANopen devices cannot be auto-addressed on the island bus,

they must be addressed using physical addressing mechanisms on the devices.

Because standard CANopen devices must be installed at the end of the island, the

last device on the island bus must be terminated with 120 Ω.

Length of the

Island Bus

The maximum length of an island bus—the maximum distance between the NIM and

the last device on the island—is 15 m (49.2 ft). This length must take into account

the extension cables between segments, extension cables between preferred

modules, and the space consumed by the devices themselves.

Note: If you want to include standard CANopen devices in your island, you need

to configure the island using the Advantys configuration software.
