The CM CANopen enables you to connect any CANopen or CAN 2.0A devices to your SIMATIC S7-1200 PLC. The module plugs into your S7-1200 and acts as a bridge between the CANopen/CAN devices and the micro PLC. This allows you to choose from a wider range of automation products when designing your system.

CANopen and CAN 2.0A support

Simply attach the CM CANopen expansion module to the SIMATIC S7-1200 PLC. Any device running the CANopen protocol or any custom CAN 2.0A based protocol can then be connected.

Once attached to the S7-1200, you then set up the CM CANopen module from within TIA Portal®. Your CANopen network configuration can then be made in the accompanying CM CANopen Configuration Studio.

The CM CANopen module can be configured to be either a Master or Slave from TIA Portal. No programming is needed to create the configuration.

A continuous communication down to the lowest field level ensures enhanced use of the functions and performance capability of sensors and actuators. Enhanced use of sensors and actuators allows you to operate your machines and plants more productively.

No data other than the actual process value can be exchanged via the standard interfaces (digital, analog) used at the sensor/actuator level. Sensors and actuators with integrated intelligence are now used for increasingly complex functions and require a communication interface tailored to these requirements.

IO-Link is an innovative, point-to-point communication interface for the sensor/actuator area that is specified in IEC 61131-9.

IO-Link consists of the following system components:

• IO-Link Master

• IO-Link Device

• Unshielded 3-wire standard cable

• Engineering tool for configuring and assigning parameters of IO-Link

IO-Link Master module SM 1278

• IO-Link master in accordance with IO-Link specification V1.1

• Serial communication with 4 channels

• Connection of 4 IO-Link devices per module (three-wire connection) or

• Connection of 4 standard 24 V DC actuators
