canopen heartbeat – canopen node

The Heartbeat protocol is used to verify that all network participants are still available in a CANopen network and that they are still in their intended NMT FSA state In old-fashioned CANopen systems the CAN remote frame-based Node-/Life-guarding protocol is used for this purpose instead of the Heartbeat protocol,

In the heartbeat protocol, a CANopen node periodically sends out a heartbeat message which lets the CANopen master or the heartbeat consumer, know that the node is still alive, If a heartbeat message does not arrive within a certain period of time, the master can take a specific action, Such an action might be to reset the node or to report an error to an operator, The heartbeat message is identified by a CAN-ID of 0x700 + the …

The heartbeat consumer object allows the configuration of a heartbeat consumer with SDO transfers from within the CANopen network or during configuration time, The following descriptions explains the details of the structure members, which should be initialized via application – or via an SDO write access:

Network management NMT

In CANopen there are two timeout-based life-guarding mechanisms: the first is node guarding, which I will not mention further, since it’s considered old news, The other one is called heartbeat, It is pretty simple: Any participant on the network sends a regular message stating its node ID and its state,

CANopen devices are required to make the transition from the state Initializing to Pre-operational automatically during bootup, When this transition is made, a single heartbeat message is sent to the bus, This is the bootup protocol, A response/reply-style pull model protocol, called node guarding, exists for slave monitoring,

In CANopen either “Node Guarding” or “Heartbeat” must be supported by a node to be CANopen conform As “Heartbeat” is the preferred, recommended

CANOpen slave and heartbeat

 · In a CANopen slave device, the index 1017h corresponds to the heartbeat producer time, If you wanted to produce a heartbeat every 1000 ms 1s, you’d write a value of 1000 to that register, Additionally, the master of the network must be configured to monitor that heartbeat, Therefore, the object dictionay of the master must have a value written to index 1016h, On the master, you additionally need to indicate which …

The Heartbeat message is sent periodically with the user-configurable heartbeat-producer-time given in the object dictionary, After power-on, the CANopen NMT slave transits automatically into the NMT pre-operational state and waits to be configured optionally and to be started by the NMT master device, There is also the possibility to configure an NMT slave device to be self-starting, This is in some CANopen applications …

 · Well if it is CANopen compliant it is up to the Master to configure it, But you may on the CANopen side have defaults, You may have to modify the EDS file to add default parameters, Maybe CoDeSys is using the defaults until it is changed by the master? The Slave will automatically boot up and send a heartbeat message for each state that it changes to , Bootup, Pre-op etc,,

The CANopen network management uses the Heartbeat message as the confirmation of the NMT command sent by the NMT master device, Additionally, any CANopen device can use it, to check the availability of any other CANopen device, This is necessary in all cases, in which CANopen devices transmit PDO messages only on state-of-change events, The subscriber of such PDO messages could not know, if there is no event or if the device is not more available, The reception of the Heartbeat …

Use the heartbeat protocol or the node guarding protocol to detect device failures on a CANopen network, Heartbeat, The heartbeat protocol allows a device to indicate the current network management NMT state, This protocol is a producer/consumer protocol, A producer device autonomously transmits a heartbeat message at a specified interval, The heartbeat message indicates the NMT state of the device, One or …
