I have now a more detailed view about the customers request and background: The problem runs some (time consuming) tests using CAN and they want to prohibit CAN write access meanwhile in order to prevent e.g. some (mis-)configuration of CAN devices or firmware updates. In such a case the test might shutdown and needs to be restarted. During the test nobody alse should be allowed to write to the CAN bus. I think this is justified.
It seems this is unrelated to CANopen or user application started twice, like I've expected and written before.
Best regards,
Alexander
