Compatibility with CAN 2.0A / 2.0B and CAN-FD versions
Support for standard and flexible data rate protocols to meet the requirements of modern applications.
CANbus
Fast and reliable communication for embedded real-time applications
CAN, a simple and robust solution for embedded communications in connected industrial systems.
Features
Discover the advanced features that make our solution a top choice
Multi-network CAN
Ability to manage multiple CAN buses within a single project, each of which can be controlled by separate CAN controllers.
CAN variable mapping
A variable intermediary map allows CAN messages to be directly associated with straton variables (inputs/outputs).
Integrated configuration tool
A dedicated configurator in the Workbench environment allows you to:
- Declare CAN ports
- Define sent and received messages
- Associate CAN data with application variables
Advantages
The concrete benefits our solution brings to your business
Direct integration with straton logic
Seamless use in IEC 61131-3 applications thanks to dedicated function blocks.
Suitable for real-time embedded systems
Ideal for applications requiring fast, robust and deterministic communications.
Centralised and intuitive configuration
CAN management is consolidated in the straton editor via the FileDBus tool, simplifying development, but can also be configured in an advanced manner using functional blocks.
Additional functions
Advanced configuration available through specific function blocks
Use Cases
CANbus addresses multiple use cases in modern industry
Embedded automation
Control of motors, actuators and sensors on vehicles or mobile equipment
Specialised machinery and robotics
Rapid exchanges between modules via CAN
Compact industrial equipment
Integration of CAN sensors/actuators into embedded controllers
Product Information
The CAN stack integrated into the STRATON AUTOMATION runtime enables direct and efficient management of the CAN bus in industrial and embedded applications. It offers native support for the protocol and integrates seamlessly with the straton IEC 61131-3 environment for simple and modular programming.
Canbus is integrated by default in the straton devkit without any purchase option.
