The NCAN-02
CANopen Adapter
Module
The NCAN-02 CANopen Adapter Module is an optional device for
ABB drives which enables the connection of the drive to a CANopen
system. Through the NCAN-02 Module it is possible to:
• Give control commands to the drive
(Start, Stop, Run enable, etc.)
• Feed a motor speed or torque reference to the drive
• Give a process actual value or a process reference to the
PID controller of the drive
• Read status information and actual values from the drive
• Change drive parameter values
• Reset a drive fault.
The communication objects and functions supported by the NCAN-02
are discussed in Chapter 6.
The adapter module is mounted onto a standard mounting rail inside or
outside the drive unit, depending on drive type and configuration. See
the drive manuals for module placement options.
