PDO tutorial doesn't work

[MatejBartosovic]

Hello.
I am following the PDO configuration tutorial however PDO's are not produced by the demo device.

What I have done so far:

• start candump can0
• run demo device ./demoLinuxDevice can0
• start canopend with stdin interface ./canopend can0 -i 1 -c stdio and send commands based on tutorial

Outputs:

• demo device

./demoLinuxDevice can0
./demoLinuxDevice[30528]: CANopen device, Node ID = 0x00, starting
./demoLinuxDevice[30528]: CAN Interface "can0" RX buffer set to 477 messages (212992 Bytes)
./demoLinuxDevice[30528]: CANopen NMT state changed to: "initializing" (0)
./demoLinuxDevice[30528]: CANopen device, Node ID = 0x04, communication reset
./demoLinuxDevice[30528]: CANopen device, Node ID = 0x04, running ...
./demoLinuxDevice[30528]: CANopen NMT state changed to: "pre-operational" (127)

Please note that there are no PDOs captured by candump. There should be 384 PDOs.

Is there any missing step to start the production of PDOs? Am I doing something incorrectly?

Hello @MatejBartosovic,

your devices needs to go into operational state first.

Run your demodevice with some id lets say 4 and do this (I am using cocomm utility):
cocomm "1 w 0x1011 1 vs load"
cocomm "4 w 0x1011 1 vs load"
cocomm "0 reset node"

re-run them now

thanks,
