CANopen Stack – Mailbox-API for Real-time operating systems
For our mature CANopen Master/Slave Stack there is now an additional Mailbox-API for easy use of Real-time operating systems available. Messages between application modules and CANopen stack are send via mailboxes instead of function calls. This secures a non-blocking communication. An application can then consist of several tasks that use the CANopen Stack parallely.
In addition the CAN-FD support in the CANopen/Master Stack has been updated to the latest specifications.

emotas EtherCAT Slave Framework
The EtherCAT Framework by emotas provides users with a convenient UserAPI for the Slave Stack Code by Beckhoff. The EtherCAT Framework allows direct object access or to register indication
functions for different events without the need to edit files of the Slave Stack code.
The combination with the EtherCAT DeviceDesigner makes it possible to create objects in an easy manner. Afterwards, these objects can be used in the application without writing a single line of code before.
