Open Source CANopen Stack for eCos

[Uwe Kindler <uwe_kindler@web.de>]

Hi,

I would likte to bring to your attention that an open source CANopen 
stack for eCos is available here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/canopennode/

We have just contributed an eCos driver for the CANopen Node project. 
The driver uses the eCos CAN I/O layer to implement the CAN 
functionality and uses the eCos generic flash driver to implement 
persistent parameters storage of the CANopen object dictionary.

CANopenNode is an open source software stack used for serial 
communication of multiple devices over the CAN/CANopen Network. It works 
on different microcontrollers, is reliable, simple and powerful and is 
suitable for industrial or home automation.

CANopen features: NMT slave, Heartbeat producer/consumer, Error control, 
Emergency message, PDO linking and dynamic mapping, SDO expedited and 
segmented transfer, SDO master, Sync producer/consumer

The eCos port has been developed and tested with the Olimex 
LPC-L2294-1MB board and eCos LPC2xxx CAN driver.

Would be great to see this info on the "Contributions and Development 
Projects" page or in the news. Should I provide a patch for the webpage 
or is there a native speaker that could add this information?

Thank you and regards,
