July 15, 2016 — The recently released Lexium Motion Module (LMM), a programmable motion controller, expands its performance range with the release of a CANopen version.
The product’s CANopen interface supports CiA DS301: CANopen Application Layer/Communication Profile and DSP402: Device Profile for Drives/Motion Control. For CANopen motion systems with tight space constraints, the LMM’s compact size of 2.7x1.4x0.16” (68x35x4mm) is a good solution.
To expedite development with the CANopen LMM, a 1-axis Development Board is available. It includes isolated I/O, CAN communications transceivers and locking pluggable connectors. The Development Board is available alone or as part of a complete Starter Kit. The Starter Kit includes a CANopen LMM, 1-axis Development Board, NEMA 17 frame motor with encoder, USB-to-CAN communications converter, and power supply.
