The EL1202 digital input terminal acquires the binary 24 V control signals from the process level and transmits them, in an electrically isolated form, to the higher-level automation unit. The EtherCAT Terminal contains two channels whose signal state is indicated by LEDs.

The EL2252 digital output terminal connects the binary control output signals at the process level with electrical isolation. The outputs of the EtherCAT Terminal are switched with high precision to match the transferred timestamp, which has a resolution of 10 ns. This technology enables output switching times to be specified precisely across the system. The distributed clocks are used for reference. In conjunction with the EL1252 (digital input terminal with time stamp), the EL2252 enables responses with equidistant time intervals, largely independent of the bus cycle time. Each output can be switched to high resistance individually.

The 8-channel digital output terminal EL2258 connects the binary output signals of the controller at the process level with electrical isolation. As in the EL2252, the outputs of the EL2258 are switched with high precision relative to the transferred time stamp, although there are certain differences in the details: Eight instead of two channels, lower timestamp resolution and auto-activation, which enables consecutive switching tasks in each cycle. The multi-timestamping feature allows each EtherCAT cycle to capture or output as many events per channel as were preloaded in the internal buffer.

The EL2262 digital output terminal connects the binary control output signals at the process level with electrical isolation. The outputs are controlled with an adjustable integral multiple (oversampling factor: n) of the bus cycle frequency (n microcycles per bus cycle). For each bus cycle, the EtherCAT Terminal receives a process data block that is output consecutively. The timebase of the terminal can be synchronized precisely with other EtherCAT devices via distributed clocks. An output pattern with a significantly higher pulse sequence than the bus cycle time is thus output precisely with the system-wide timebase. This procedure enables the temporal resolution of the digital output signals to be increased to n times the bus cycle time. The maximum output rate is 1 Msamples/s.

The EL2502-0010 output terminal modulates the pulse width of a binary signal, and outputs it electrically isolated from the E-bus. The mark/space ratio is preset by a 16-bit value from the automation device. The output stage is protected against overload and short-circuit. The EtherCAT Terminal contains two channels whose signal state is indicated by LEDs. The LEDs are driven in time with the outputs, and show the duty factor by their brightness. The EL2502-0010 supports EtherCAT distributed clock timestamps in order to influence switching on, off and over of a PWM signal with microsecond precision.

The EL2521-xxxx output terminals change the frequency of a binary signal and output it (electrically isolated from the E-bus). The frequency is preset by a 16 bit value from the automation device. The signal state of the EtherCAT Terminal is indicated by light emitting diodes. The LEDs are clocked with the outputs and each displays an active output.

The EL2522 incremental encoder simulation terminal (pulse train) outputs a frequency-modulable signal on two channels with four outputs. The signal can be used to control motor drivers or other signal receivers, which are controlled by single cycles. The pulse sequence and pulse number can be specified directly via the process data in the frequency. Alternatively, the integrated path control can be used. For each channel the operating mode (frequency modulation, pulse/direction specification and incremental encoder simulation) can be selected. In addition, the EtherCAT Terminal can control three output channels in the ABC encoder simulation.

The EL2595 EtherCAT Terminal contains a constant current source for LEDs and is designed to control one or more LEDs connected in series. The user specifies the required set current, the integrated power supply unit then provides the required forward voltage, depending on the connected LEDs. For this purpose, the EL2595 has a step-up/step-down power supply unit, which generates the output voltage from the 24 V DC input voltage. The output voltage is also adjusted during operation in order to maintain the set current. The current can be switched quickly for short-term lighting, hence even extremely short flashes of light are possible. The pulse duration is adjustable from 1 µs to infinity, the flash time itself can be set through a timestamp via distributed clocks; an external trigger input is also available. Extensive real-time diagnostics, e.g. for input current/voltage and output current/voltage allow detailed monitoring of the LED light intensity. If a specifiable load corridor is exited, e.g., due to load errors, the EL2595 switches off to protect the load (resettable).

The EL2596 LED strobe control terminal contains a flexible power supply unit that supplies the LED with the required current and voltage. Applications from continuous light to short light pulses in the kHz range are thus possible. Each individual flash can be triggered in a controlled manner by the control system via the distributed clocks/timestamp function. The EL2596 has a trigger output for triggering cameras and high-quality, fast current and voltage control, so that line scan cameras, for example, also benefit from constant illumination. Extensive real-time diagnostics, e.g. for input current/voltage and output current/voltage allow detailed monitoring of the LED light intensity. Thus, overdrive applications with short high-current pulses through the LED are possible. If a specifiable load corridor is exited, e.g., due to load errors, the EL2596 switches off to protect the LED (resettable).

The terminal can be adapted to individual requirements through configurable filters and supply currents.

The EL3702 analog input terminal handles signals in the range between -10 and +10 V. The voltage is digitized to a resolution of 16 bits, and is transmitted, electrically isolated, to the controller. The signals are oversampled with an adjustable, integer multiple (oversampling factor: n) of the bus cycle frequency (n microcycles per bus cycle). For each bus cycle, the EtherCAT Terminal generates a process data block that is transferred collectively during the next bus cycle. The time base of the terminal can be synchronized precisely with other EtherCAT devices via distributed clocks. This procedure enables the temporal resolution of the analog input signals to be increased to n times the bus cycle time.

With the processing power available there and in combination with the TwinCAT Function TF3650, true RMS or power calculations as well as complex user-specific algorithms can be calculated via the voltage and current characteristics. Through the oversampling principle, the terminal is able to measure at significantly shorter intervals than the cycle time of the control system.

The 8-channel digital input terminal EL1258-0010 acquires fast binary control signals from the process level and transmits them, in an electrically isolated form, to the controller. The EL1258-0010 is the ground switching version of the EL1258 and offers not only a higher channel density compared to the EL1252, but also higher performance due to the multi-timestamp function.

The EL2596-0030 LED strobe control terminal contains a flexible power supply unit that supplies the LED with the required current and voltage. Applications from continuous light to short light pulses in the kHz range are thus possible. Each individual flash can be triggered in a controlled manner by the control system via the distributed clocks/timestamp function. The EL2596-0030 has a trigger output for triggering cameras and high-quality, fast current and voltage control, so that line scan cameras, for example, also benefit from constant illumination. Extensive real-time diagnostics, e.g. for input current/voltage and output current/voltage allow detailed monitoring of the LED light intensity. Thus, overdrive applications with short high-current pulses through the LED are possible. If a specifiable load corridor is exited, e.g., due to load errors, the EL2596-0030 switches off to protect the LED (resettable).
