Reasons to choose plc that supports canopen
PLC is a control communication system used in industrial automation, which is called programmable logic controller. We can feel from the name of the PLC that this thing can be programmed, and this is also the case. In some projects that need to change the control content frequently, if it is a traditional relay controller, the device can only be disassembled and reinstalled. And it does not have to be so troublesome to change to PLC control, the operator only needs to change the content of control through programming software, and do all kinds of IO wiring at the same time, basically no delay. In addition, PLC equipment has few connections and strong anti-interference ability. It is widely used in various industries such as steel, petroleum, chemical industry, electric power, building materials, machinery manufacturing, automobiles, textiles, transportation, environmental protection and cultural entertainment. It is the future One of the core equipment for industrial Internet construction. PLC is so important, then we should pay more attention when choosing it. If you have high requirements on the performance and applicability of PLC, the author here strongly recommends the plc that supports canopen for you. Let me talk about my reasons.
Let's take Shenyang Guangcheng Technology's GCAN-PLC type PLC that supports canopen as an example. Because it supports the CANopen protocol, another angle shows that it can use the CAN bus for communication. This is an amazing ability. What? Compared with other communication buses, the data transmission speed of the CAN bus is fast, the anti-interference ability is strong, the communication distance is long, and there are many connection node devices. It is a bus that is very suitable for use in harsh environments. With the PLC equipment supported by CAN bus communication, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the possibility of problems, improve the efficiency of response, and produce more industrial products. And these are not the results that PLC users want to get?
Secondly, GCAN-PLC type PLC that supports canopen can freely install combined IO modules. You can install digital IO if you need digital IO, and install analog IO if you need analog IO. There is no mixed combination The problem can help you better adapt to the control needs. If you think that the original three communication interfaces of serial, CAN and Ethernet on this device can not meet the actual needs, you can also add a new communication interface to it like installing a control quantity analog IO module, such as Bluetooth and many more.
Shenyang Guangcheng Technology's GCAN-PLC-type PLC that supports canopen can be programmed using OpenPCS software, which supports five standard programming languages that comply with the IEC-61131-3 standard, which makes the program portable and reusable It is very strong, and the software also has a variety of debugging functions (such as breakpoints, single steps, monitoring, etc.), making the debugging process more convenient.
