Disclosed are a method of configurating a CANopen network, a method of operating a slave device of the CANopen network, and a system for controlling a PC device using the CANopen network. The method of operating the slave device connected to the CANopen network includes creating a process data object for transmission, designating identifier information for the process data object, and transmitting the created process data object to a device corresponding to the designated identifier information. The identifier information includes a communication object identifier allowing another slave device or a master device connected to the CANopen network to receive the process data object.
