v0.8.0

New features

• Partial slave node support!
• New way of accessing PDOs
• Improved DS-402 profile support
• LSS fast scan support
• Node guarding support

Bug fix for PDO save()

• Fixes bug where node.pdo.save() will not work after mapping PDOs using OD names.

Compatibility release

Improves compatibility with more "exotic" CANopen implementations (most notably Curtis drives).

Low level period transmits and more

API changes:

• EMCY resets are not handled differently than regular EMCY codes in callbacks and log anymore. Previously None was used to represent a reset in the callbacks and it was not added to the log. Now resets are represented as a EmcyError with code 0.

Improvements:

• Low level periodic transmission is used if the CAN interface and python-can supports it (currently supported with SocketCAN and IXXAT).
• Bit mapping support for PDOs
• EDS files with default value expressions containing $NODEID is supported
• LSS improvements
• If the CAN receive thread crashes, the exception will be raised next time a message is transmitted.
