A highly cost-effective, dual-channel CAN card makes the connection between Copley Controls’ distributed control software and CANopen servo and stepper drives. The two independent CAN ports are galvanically isolated to provide greater noise immunity in industrial environments. An on-board microcontroller off-loads tasks from the host computer enabling faster system performance. PCI compliant, it is compatible with both 3.3VDC and 5VDC computers.

A PC board-mounting card for adding I/O to a CAN distributed control network. The CAN-IPM-01 combines configurable digital I/O points with dedicated analog and digital inputs and outputs to enhance distributed control networks using Copley’s CANopen servo drives and stepper drivers.
Nine 8-bit ports are configurable as digital input or outputs. Twelve A/D ports convert 0-3 Vdc signals into 12-bit values. Twelve PWM outputs can be low-pass filtered to produce analog signals. Eight dedicated digital inputs set the CAN node address and bit-rate.
The DSP/microcontroller is the same type that is used in Copley’s digital motion products and has the same software interface.
The card supports CAN bus bit-rates up to 1 Mbit/sec and RS-232 communications to 115,200 Baud.
