CANopenTerm is an open-source software tool designed for the development, testing, and analysis of CANopen networks and devices. It extends its capabilities to support other CAN protocols, including SAE J1939 and OBD-II, making it a versatile tool for professionals working with CAN-based networks.
Key functionalities include:
-
Monitoring and Analysis: Advanced trace filtering and node access for comprehensive network monitoring and analysis.
-
Configuration and Simulation: Tools for configuring CANopen devices and simulating nodes under development.
-
Testing: Capabilities to thoroughly test CANopen networks and devices.
-
Extended Protocol Support: Features tailored for SAE J1939 and OBD-II protocols.
-
Read and Write SDOs: Manage Service Data Objects with a user-friendly interface.
