The NI PXI-8531 is a 1-port, high-speed CANopen PXI interface for developing CANopen applications in NI LabVIEW software on Windows and LabVIEW Real-Time OSs. CANopen is a higher-level communication protocol based on the controller area network (CAN) physical layer. It was designed for motion-oriented machine control networks, such as handling systems, but now it is used in a variety of products and applications, including medical equipment, off-road vehicles, maritime electronics, public transportation, and building automation.
The NI-Industrial Communications for CANopen driver includes a common API across PCI, PXI, and NI CompactRIO targets running either the Windows or LabVIEW Real-Time OS to make it easier to reuse specific project code between targets and applications. In addition to CANopen communication, you can use the driver to transmit and receive raw CAN frames.
