4.5 Additional definitions
4.5.1 Boot-up message
The Boot-up message is the first sign of life from a CANopen device following power-up or a reset. This
message signals that the nodes have completed initialization and are transitioning into the Pre-Operational
state.
4.5.2 EDS
The Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) describes the functionality of a CANopen device in machine-readable form.
These files, in a standardized text format, describe both all supported objects from the object directory of the
device, various data about the device and the vendor as well as physical parameters such as the baud rates
supported.
Almost all CANopen control systems can read EDS files and make it easier for the system integrator to
parameterize the system.
4.5.3 DCF
The Device Configuration File (DCF) uses the EDS file as a basis and also contains the values of each
object.
This file can be used for the automatic configuration of CANopen devices.
4.5.4 LSS
The Layer Setting Services (LSS) is a service that can be used to set the ID and the bit rate of a device.
The identifiers 7E4
H
and 7E5
H
are reserved for this. The service can be used in a peer-to-peer connection
from the master to the device or over the bus.
