Description
The 781673-01 is a part of the Industrial Communication Interfaces category, specifically the NI-9881 model. This model is an NI 9881, C Series CANopen Interface, 1 Port, designed for use with CompactRIO systems. It stands out for its ability to support PDOs and SDOs in accordance with CiA DS 301.
This module features 1 CANopen channel, allowing for efficient and reliable industrial communication. It supports a maximum baud rate of 1 Mbits/s, ensuring high-speed data transfer. The connection to the network is established via a 9-pin, D-Sub male connector, which is widely used in industrial environments for its robustness and reliability.
Additionally, the module includes two common pins, which are internally connected to the module’s isolated reference, enhancing safety and system integrity. For environments with high levels of electromagnetic interference, the module features an optional Shield Pin (SHLD). This pin is crucial for improved EMC performance and signal integrity, ensuring stable operation even in noisy environments.
Another significant feature of the NI-9881 is its software-selectable 120 Ω termination resistors between CAN_L and CAN_H. This flexibility allows for easy adaptation to different network configurations and requirements, optimizing communication efficiency.
