Details on the individual columns
"Def." column (Define):
• Entries can be edited depending on the "Def." column.
• When an EDS file is read in (similar to firmware version V 1.0), the default setting is
Def.=True (enabled) for all entries. When "Define object dictionary" is selected, the default
value is Def.=False (disabled) for all entries.
• When the "Def." option is selected, the CANopen node supports this object.
"Edited" column:
• "Yes" in the "Edited" column indicates that you have made a change in this row since the
last check ("Apply and check data" button).
• The column is always write-protected.
• After you have pressed the "Apply and check data" button, the marking for a "valid" row is
removed.
• After you have successfully checked everything, "Yes" is no longer displayed in the column
and the "Apply and check data" button disappears again.
Editing an entry
You can edit any entry with a fully defined field in the Index.Subindex column. There is also a
type of row where only one index is defined. Such a row can never be edited. It only involves
a header with a name of OD.
You can only edit entries when the check box in the "Def." column is selected.
Editable columns:
• Name
• Data type
• Access
• Min.
• Max.
• Initial value
• New value
• PDO assignable
• Index.Subindex - You can only edit this column when you have added a new entry. It can
no longer be edited once you press the "Apply and check data" button.
