Kendrion Kuhnke Automation GmbH CAM Control 5.1.3.2 Output variables 5.1.3.3 Position referencing An ON signal received by Ref input DI0.7 resets the counter reading to "0". This is referencing the position (if an incremental encoder is used). State1.1 indicates the state of referencing. 5.1.3.4 Cam tracks Cam tracks 0 .. 24 directly actuate digital outputs 0.0 to 2.7. Cam tracks 25 .. 32 are software cams which the EtherCAT master, CAN master or other unit can read and output to other modules equipped with digital outputs (extension). 5.1.3.5 Slave mode Only one encoder is required to run several CAM modules in a synchronised manner.
The module that the encoder is connected to can use EtherCAT to transfer the position and velocity to the other modules.
