Change Properties Heartbeat Consumer: This button opens a dialog where the nodes
defined in the EDS-file are listed and can be selected for getting guarded. For this
purpose set a check in the Enable field and enter the desired value in milliseconds in
the Heartbeat time field (by a double-click on this field you can open a selection box of
time values). If the Hearbeat Consumer option is activated, then the respective module
will listen to heartbeats which are sent by the master. As soon as no more heartbeats
are received, the module will switch off the I/Os.

Note: If a device with heartbeat functionality is inserted, its heartbeat settings
automatically will be adjusted to those of the master (CANopen Manager).
PDO Mapping
This dialog of the CANopen device configuration is just an alternative and simplified
display of all currently defined Send and Receive PDOs.
If write access is defined for the PDO (definition in the device description file, default:
write access) the PDO can be enabled resp. disabled here in the dialog. For modular
devices however only if the Autoconfig mode is deactivated.
The transmission mode always can be modified here. For this purpose open the PDO
properties dialog by a doubleclick on the respective PDO entry.
Further modifications of the PDO configuration can only be done in the dialogs Receive
PDO Mapping and Send PDO Mapping.
Receive PDO Mapping
This dialog is only available, if option Enable Expert PDO Settings is activated for the
device.
In this dialog of a CANopen device configuration the mapping for Receive PDOs is
defined, that is the assignment of outputs (object dictionary entries) to a PDO for the
purpose of data exchange in the CANbus. The corresponding allocation to the IEC
addresses will be displayed in the I/O Mapping table.
