I need single controller and 3 clusters of I/O's with up to 20 digital I/O's (mixed in different combination) per cluster and 2 Analog 10 bit Inputs per cluster. Power: 24V.
Graphical method of programming.
Right now I use Siemens LOGO! PLC's and in general it's all I need but they do not have the remote I/O capability.

I am tasked to create network based on CANbus.
One specific piece of equipment, Rudder Angle Indicator interfaces through CANopen and not another Network.
I need to set up network that matches it, hence it is CANopen.
For this network I need Controller and remote I/O's. Must be marine industry certified.
I found great hardware, Wago in particular but there is even better fitting to what I need; none of it Marine Certified.
Some Modicon controllers like Modicon M340 are marine certified but it looks like they just offer capability to be interfaced with CANopen network, not to be it's controller. No matching I/O's. No development platform for CANopen.

its a gateway but at least it gets you closer to having a comm link between your siemens and can bus. Maybe this manufacturer can get you their, give them a call.
try this just googled it and there you go. Usually Prosoft has a gateway but no dice, must not be a demand.
Wago has can bus and have used it before for io. I dont think you can go wrong with their products.
