9.1 Configuring and commissioning CANopen
Modular PLCs XControl: XC-104-…, XC-204-…, XC-303-… can communicate
both through CAN and through CANopen. Communication through CANopen
is described below.
Any CAN gateway can be connected to the CAN master by using the appro-
priate EDS file.
Following is an example showing how to connect an XN-312-GW-CAN
CANopen gateway, including XN300 slice modules, to the CANopen master.
Initial commissioning
The following steps need to be carried out in general:
▶ Connect the Modular PLCs XControl: XC-104-…, XC-204-…, XC-303-…
to the programming PC
▶ Connect the MFD-Titan to the CAN-Gateway XN-312-GW-CAN with a
CAN bus cable.
▶ Set the DIP switches for CAN
→ Section “ Activating the bus termination resistors”, page 27.
▶ Set the node ID and the baud rate
▶ Save the configuration for the I/O system XN300 connected to the CAN-
Gateway XN-312-GW-CAN in the "config check" on the gateway.
▶ Open your project in XSOFT-CODESYS-3 or create a new one
→ Section “5.2 Creating a new project”, page 90.

If you are putting the field bus into operation for the first time,
you will first have to set up the PLC programming environment.
