The EL2088 digital output terminal connects the binary 24 V DC control signals from the automation device on to the actuators at the process level with electrical isolation. The EtherCAT Terminal contains eight channels whose signal state is indicated by LEDs.Special features:ground switchingConnection of different load types possible (ohmic, inductive, lamp load)Max. output current 0.5 A per channelOverload and short-circuit proof outputs and reverse polarity protectionn addition, the EL5151 enables the measurement of a period or frequency with a resolution of 100 ns. With the optional interpolating microincrement functionality, the EL5151 can provide even more accurate axis positions for dynamic axes. It also supports synchronous reading of the encoder value together with other input data in the EtherCAT system via the high-precision EtherCAT distributed clocks (DC). A timestamp for the last-registered incremental edge is also available. The use of encoder profiles enables simple and fast linking of the process data for motion control applications.
