Re: EDS files stored on devices

Hi Peter,

as mentioned by Heikki, objects 0x1021 and 0x1022 can be used for that
purpose. The format of the stored file can also be user specific (e.g.
zipped) by using values > 80h for the format type (0x1022).

We are offering this feature in our CANopen I/O modules and the
stack for some time, but I believe most of the CANopen tools in the
market simply ignore it.

If you have the feeling that the objects need some enhancement, pls.
let me know, since we are in the process to update the existing CANopen
specification CiA 301.
 


Greetings,
Uwe
