1 Product introduction
The purpose of this library is that it should be easy to create 3rd party CANopen® compliant
applications in a high level language such as C# or C++. The library is well suited for helping develop
diagnostic or tools for maintenance or service or developers. The driver supports;
 SDO expedited transfer (read and write 1-4 bytes in object dictionary of your CANopen
node(s)).
 SDO segmented transfer (read and write typically strings in object dictionary of your
CANopen node(s)).
 SDO block transfers (write only, use this for firmware upgrade).
 NMT Master Node control (start, stop, reset…)
 NMT Master error control (node-guard, heart-beat monitor)
 NMT Slave
 Transmit PDO
 Receive PDO
 Emergency producer
 Emergency consumer
 Sync message consumer
 CAN raw mode (send and receive raw CAN frames). This can "simulate" PDOs.

4 Supported hardware
The structure of the CANopen API (C++/C#) driver is that all CAN-layer dependent calls are made via a
DLL called canopenlib_hw.dll (see chapter 4 in this document) – there are no direct dependencies
from the CANopen® network to the CAN interface API.
This means that you can choose any of the listed hardware’s below and just use the specific DLL for
your hardware. You can also develop your own plug-in DLL; source code can be downloaded, free of
charge for the listed hardware below as example how to implement your own plug-in for your
preferred hardware. It has been kept in mind that this CANopen library should be possible to port to
cheap CAN interfaces or even migrate to a embedded environment - without a fancy CAN API –
therefore this library CAN-interface class holds a lot of intelligence (CAN message dispatcher, thread
safe calls etc).
4.1 Available CAN interface plug-ins.
Today we can provide you with, free of charge, plug-in DLLs for the listed CAN interfaces below. You
simply select your preferred hardware in the “Debug/Release” drop down in Visual Studio.

4.1.1 Zanthic Technologies CAN4USB FX
A plug-in for the high performance CAN4USBFX (http://www.zanthic.com/can4usbfx.htm) from

Zanthic Technologies Inc is available which means that it will work with Zanthic Technologies USB
adapters.
4.1.2 Lawicel CANUSB / CAN232
A plug-in for the Lawicel ASCII-API is available which means that it will work with both low price
CANUSB and CAN232.
 CANUSB – http://www.canusb.com/documents/canusb_manual.pdf
 CAN232 – http://www.can232.com/can232_v3.pdf
10
4.1.3 KVASER CANLIB (USB, PCI, PC104, PC104+, PCMICA,WLAN)
All KVASER’s hardware ( www.kvaser.com ) is using the same interface API – this means that you can
choose any of the KVASER CAN-products as they are all supporting the CANLIB API.
Recommended Kvaser hardware is Kvaser Leaf Light!
4.1.4 Movimento Castor (USB)
Movimento Castor USB is low cost USB to CAN adapter. Contact [email protected] to reach all
preferred retailing contacts and best price.

11
4.1.5 EMS Dr. Thomas Wünsche (USB, Ethernet, PCI, PC104)
All EMS hardware ( http://www.ems-wuensche.com ) is using the same interface API – this means
that you can choose any of the EMS CAN-products to use with the EMS plug-in DLL.
Important notice: EMS windows drivers are not delivered with a free of charge API (SDK) – this means
that you will have to purchase a proper developer license for your EMS device/devices to make the
canopen_hw.dll working properly. Contact EMS for further information about developer licenses.
4.1.6 PEAK System (PCAN-Light API)
A plug-in for the PEAK System (www.peak-system.com) is available which means that it will work

A plug-in for the Tiny-CAN II XL (www.mhs-elektronik.de) is available which means that it will work
with all MHS System hardware that is supporting the Tiny-CAN API.
USB DRIVER NOTICE: Install the latest driver version 2.08.08 from the FTDI Homepage to get this
adapter working stable on your OS – download: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm . The
FTDI driver version 2.08.02 (WHQL Certified) doesn't work correctly on Windows 7 and Windows
VISTA (Windows XP, or others?) is Datalink Engineering’s experience.
To uninstall older/other driver packages you can use this application:

http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities/CDMUninstaller_v1.4.zip.
13
4.1.8 Create your own plug-in?
A number of ‘C’-functions needs to be exported from canopenlib_hw.dll in order to make it work

with higher layers of the CANopen® layer; they are described in the following list. Support for more
than one handle per CAN channel is not required (a dispatcher in canopenlib.dll are dispatching one
message to all objects that are listening to this CAN-port).
#define CAN_MSG_RTR 0x0001 // Message is a remote request

#define CAN_MSG_EXT 0x0002 // Message has a extended ID
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortLibraryInit(void);
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortOpen( int port, canPortHandle *handle );

canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortClose( canPortHandle handle );
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortBitrateSet( canPortHandle handle, int bitrate );
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortEcho( canPortHandle handle, bool enabled );
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortGoBusOn( canPortHandle handle );

canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortGoBusOff( canPortHandle handle );
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortWrite(canPortHandle handle,

long id,
void *msg,
unsigned int dlc,
unsigned int flags);
canOpenStatus __stdcall canPortRead(canPortHandle handle,

long *id,
void *msg,
unsigned int *dlc,
unsigned int *flags);

7 Getting started.
This tutorial explains how to get started using the library together with Visual Studio 2010.
7.1 Reference .NET DLL (canopenlib_NET.dll) in your Visual Studio project

The .NET library file that needs to be included is the canopenlib_NET.dll. This DLL is simply added to
your project by right-clicking the “References” folder of you C#/VB project and choose add. When
successfully added it will look as follows:
7.2 No need to include any namespace.

The project that references the canopenlib.dll can create instances of the following classes without
explicitly add any namespace; ClientSDO_NET, NMT_Master_NET and CanMonitor_NET. The
ClientSDO_NET class is used for communication and configuration of CANopen nodes (normally
slaves) i.e. read from and writes to the object dictionary of the nodes. The NMT_Master_NET is used
for network management of the network nodes (i.e. set them in different operational states and
guard their presence and operational state). The CanMonitor_NET class is just easy access to the raw
CAN-frames on the CAN-bus. The definitions of the classes are listed below.
7.3 Communication classes overview - .NET.

The classes of the library described more in detail in below. They have all in common that they
connect to the very same CAN hardware channel but it will only be the first instance of any of the
listed classes that will set the bit rate. It is also possible to create multiple instances of one single
classes and let the asynchronously coexist beside other, simply no limitations to communicate with
more than one node on the network at the very same time.
17
7.3.1 ClientSDO_NET
The ClientSDO-class is used for write to and read from the Object Dictionary of the nodes on the
network. The class support expedited read/write, segmented read/write and block write.

public void setReadObjectTimeout(uint timeout);
public void setWriteObjectTimeout(uint timeout);
public CANOPEN_LIB_ERROR.CanOpenStatus unregisterObjectReadWriteResultCallbacks();
}
7.3.1.2 Read from Object Dictionary example

Below is described how to initiate a read of a uint32 from object index = 0x1234 and sub index = 0x01
of node with id = 3.
ClientSDO_NET client_SDO;
client_SDO = new ClientSDO_NET();
stat = client_SDO.canHardwareConnect(0, 500000); //Port 0, bitr 500k.

if (stat != SDO_NET.CanOpenStatus.CANOPEN_OK)
return -1; // Unexpected error.
stat = client_SDO.connect(3); // Connects client SDO to node 3.

if (stat != SDO_NET.CanOpenStatus.CANOPEN_OK)
return -1; // Unexpected error.
SDO_NET.CanOpenStatus stat;
uint value;
uint error;
stat = client_SDO.objectRead(10, 10, out value, out error);

if (stat == SDO_NET.CanOpenStatus.CANOPEN_OK)
return value; // Success, “value” contains read value.
18
7.3.1.3 Write to Object Dictionary example
If you want to write to (or read from) the object dictionary of a node you simply use the
ClientSDO_NET class. Example below show a write attempt to object dictionary 0x1234 and subindex
0x12.
ClientSDO_NET client_SDO;
client_SDO =new ClientSDO_NET(); // Create instance.
CANOPEN_LIB_ERROR.CanOpenStatus stat;
stat = client_SDO.canHardwareConnect(0, 250000); // Connect CAN-hw ch 0, bitr 250kbps.
if (stat != CANOPEN_LIB_ERROR.CanOpenStatus.CANOPEN_OK)
{
// Something went wrong, is no CAN adapter connected?
}
stat = client_SDO.connect(12); // Connect to CANopen with node-id 12.

{
// Fatal error – could not connect to node 12.
}
uint error_code;
stat = client_SDO.objectWrite(0x1234, 0x12, 4, out error_code);
{
if (stat == CANOPEN_LIB_ERROR.CanOpenStatus.CANOPEN_ERROR_HW_NOT_CONNECTED)
{
// Hardware error, is the adapter unplugged?
}
else
{
if (stat == CANOPEN_LIB_ERROR.CanOpenStatus.CANOPEN_TIMEOUT)
{
// Write timeout – is node 12 powered off?
}
else
{
// Remote node didn’t accept the value. Read node’s error code in variable
// variable error_code – see nodes documentation what this error code means.
}
}
}
else
{
// Success!
}
19
