Network Variable Basics

[Jeremy Kopicz]

Attached is a tutorial on the use of Network Variables.

Great write up Jeremy! I would like to add that if you have a question of identifiers to use check this link:

This list has the identifiers that are used by the CANopen standard.

One more thing:
Verify that network variables are enabled in target settings!
And if they were not, you will need to add libraries needed to work with network variables.
Below libraries needed for BasicController/ PDM-NG:
3S_CANOPENNETVAR.lib
Ifm_RAWCan_NT_v0x000x.lib
Ifm_NetVarLib_NT_v0x000x.lib
Ifm_CANopen_NT_v0x000x.lib
3S_CANopenManager.lib
3S_CanDrv.lib

And here the libraries for Cabinet-, Smart-, Classic-, Extended-, Safety- Controller / PDM, PDM-Compact, PDM-Smart:
3S_CANopenManagerOptTableEx.lib
3S_CanDrvOptTableEx.lib
3S_CANopenNetVarOptTableEx.lib
3S_CANopenMasterOptTableEx.lib
SysLibCallback.lib
Ifm_CRxxxx_CANopenxMaster_Vyyyy
