I am hoping to use ros2_canopen to communicate with an Allegro hand. However, it doesn't seem like there is an EDS available for it. I was wondering

  1. Is there an easy way to generate EDS files?
  2. Is there a workaround for using ros2_canopen without an EDS file?

Hi, allegro hand does not use CANopen but a custom protocol based on CAN bus. You'll have to implement it yourself. I recommend looking at https://github.com/autowarefoundation/ros2_socketcan

Thank you for the clarity. I'll give it a shot.
