The following sections describe the first steps that are required for the initial commissioning of the device.
Furthermore, it contains useful information on how to connect, configure, and mount the device.
Installing Software¶
Use the Proemion Configurator software to configure the device.
You can evaluate the transmitted data with:
- the Remote Service Tool software,
- a 3rd Party App for Android or iOS via Byte Command Protocol API,
- the RM CAN Device Monitor Pro CANopen.
Use the Firmware Programmer software for firmware updates.
The software can be downloaded from our Download Center at the Document Library

Execute the relevant application file (setup.exe, install.bat or similar) and follow the instructions on the screen to install the software on your PC.
RM CAN Device Monitor Pro CANopen¶
The RM CAN Device Monitor Pro CANopen can load an .eds file, and read and write to any address in that specification.
One disadvantage of this tool is that any operation can only be done in a serial fashion:
- Select object
- Edit settings
- Write object
- Repeat.....
This means that common tasks may be more quickly performed with a .dod file and the Proemion Configurator.
Proemion Configurator¶
The Proemion Configurator is our default software for configuring the Proemion CLM and CLW device families.
With this tool, you can load in a set of Objects to read or program, and quickly setup the device.
This is our recommended method for setting up your CANlink® wireless 4000, and will form the basis for explaining how to configure the device in this document.
The Proemion Configurator may be downloaded from Go to Download Center > 03_Proemion Tools Software > 01_Software > Proemion Configurator.
See Connect to Proemion Configurator for connection options.
