Special features: suitable for fast counting tasks with counting frequencies up to 100 kHz an up counter and a down counter, or two separate up or down counters
The KL1512 Bus Terminal is a 2-channel up or down counter and transports the counter value electrically isolated to the higher-level automation device.
The 2-port EtherCAT junction enables configuration of EtherCAT star topologies. A modular EtherCAT star can be realized by using several EP1122-0001 units in a station. Individual devices or complete EtherCAT strands can be connected at the junction ports. The EtherCAT junctions are connected via M8 sockets with direct display of link and activity status. The Run LED indicates the status of the EP1122-0001.
The EP2338-0001 EtherCAT Box has eight digital channels that can each be operated as inputs or outputs. It is not necessary to configure whether a channel (pin 4 of the M8) is to be used as input or output; the input circuit is permanently connected internally to the output driver, so that a set output is automatically displayed in the input process image.
