Schneider Electric BMXNOM0200 CANopen Network Communication Module – Modicon M340 Series
When a CANopen network loses its master module on the factory floor, the consequences cascade instantly — servo drives stop responding, distributed I/O nodes go silent, and entire production lines halt without warning. Downtime in automotive assembly, packaging machinery, or material handling can cost thousands of dollars per minute. The Schneider Electric BMXNOM0200 is the dedicated CANopen network master module engineered to prevent exactly this scenario, providing deterministic, real-time communication across your distributed automation architecture.
Within the Modicon M340 platform — Schneider Electric’s mid-range PLC series trusted by engineers across more than 100 countries — the BMXNOM0200 occupies a critical position as the sole native CANopen master module. It bridges the M340 CPU with up to 127 CANopen slave devices, supporting both DS301 (communication profile) and DS401 (generic I/O device profile) standards. As CANopen remains the dominant fieldbus in European machine building and is widely adopted in Asia-Pacific industrial automation, the BMXNOM0200 is a globally recognized component in modern control system design.

- Firmware Upgradeable: Compatible with Schneider Electric firmware update tools for long-term supportability.
Industry & Equipment Applications
- Automotive Manufacturing: Body welding lines, paint shop conveyors, and assembly robot coordination via CANopen servo drives.
- Packaging Machinery: High-speed filling, capping, and labeling machines requiring synchronized multi-axis motion.
- Material Handling: Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), conveyor networks, and AGV fleet management.
- Printing & Converting: Web tension control and register mark synchronization across distributed drive systems.
- Building Automation: HVAC control, elevator systems, and access control panels using CANopen I/O modules.
- Renewable Energy: Wind turbine pitch control systems and solar tracker drive networks.
- Food & Beverage: Hygienic conveyor systems and dosing/filling stations with distributed CANopen I/O.
