Can PXI-8531 be a slave node to communicate with Park's IQAN-MD4?

Hello, 

 

I am wondering if it is possible to configure a PXI-8531 as a salve node using LabVIEW?

I read that CANopen library only supports to configure the module as a master node.

PXI-8531 is a CANopen module. Is there any other way to make the PXI-8531 to be a slave node in the network?

 

It seems like IQAN-MD4 needs to be the master node...

If anyone has experience on connecting a IQAN-MD4 and a PXI and would like to suggest a better idea on this, it would be very helpful.

 

Thanks a lots.

Hi,

 

As you said, NI-IndCom for CANopen only supports master node.

Generally, the CANopen slave is a sensor or indicator. However, these functionalities are not available for PXI-8531.

 

Thanks!
