With youCAN prototypes can be used for the software devoplement by providing the fitting tools for the CANopen devices. CANopen functions of the prototpyes can be implemented, added and removed in a straight-forward way by the development environment.
The development of CANopen nodes and also their simulation can be carried out on one or distributed PCs or evaluation boards. The results of the prototypes can later be used on the real embedded targets, as the CANopen Library provides the same API on all different targets.
The following tools belong to youCAN
- CANopen Design Tool
- CANopen Device Monitor
- CANopen Configuration Manager
- CAN-REport.
For a CANopen device the CANopen object directory and the CAN connection (CAN driver) are the central elements. The CANopen design tool generates the object directory by means of databases. The object directory contains the CANopen communications profile (DS301, DS302) and device profiles (DS401, DS402 ...). The result is C code, an EDS file and a detailed documentation of the objects used.
With the help of youCAN the migration from one target to another one can be realized very fast. A more powerful target might be necessary if the prototyping reveals that a target lacks resource.
The other way around it can also be a migration from a powerful target to a cheaper one if there are many reserves.
The configuration tool CANopen Device Monitor is always included in the scope of delivery. It can be used to configure the CANopen projects and devices by access to their object dictionaries.
The CAN analyzer CAN-REport belongs to the standard scope of delivery.
Supported Hardware
Currently PCs and Embedded-PCs running on Windows XP and Vista are supported.
The youCAN development environment is available for the following CAN interfaces:
- CPC-USB or CPC-PCI Interfaces by EMS Wünsche
- EtherCAN Gateway (Ethernet/CAN)
- IGW/900 Gateway (Ethernet/CAN)
Delivery
youCAN comes with all tools that are required for a fast development process. Depending on the version the tools can be delivered with different extensions. Furthermore the customization of the scope of delivery for youCAN is possible.
Delivery of the youCAN Prototyping environment comprises different example programs that describe the usage of the various CANopen services. All examples contain a complete implementation of a CANopen device including the object directory as well as application code. These are ready to be compiled and to run.
Among the detailed reference manual there is a printed user manual, numbering 225 pages, as documentation of the CANopen Library of port available.
Using youCAN CANopen systems and also single CANopen nodes can be developed based on prototpyes.
Advantages of the use of prototypes are:
- faster development
- Usage of the CANopen Library already at an early stage of the development
- simulation of the process is possible
- virtual CANopen nodes can be connected to existing CANopen networks
- virtual nodes can be developed to real nodes with the reuse of the software
- test cases can be developed and tested with the prototypes
- these tests can be reused for the real implementation
youCAN is also suitable to create virtual test environments with having the real hardware available.
Single devices can be started on a PC using the abstraction layer as a prototype while the remaining network consists of real nodes.
