The EP1258 EtherCat Box is designed to dramatically improve performance of I/O systems installed in harsh locations.
With this I/O device, the vendor’s eXtreme Fast Control technology
(XFC) is now available in a rugged and compact IP 67 housing that
allows installation directly on machines without an extra control
cabinet, providing space savings and cost reductions. The EP1258 XFC
box detects digital input signals with a highly precise resolution of
1ns directly on the machine. This allows reaction times to be
shortened—independent of the control cycle—and very fast events to be
detected and processed further without requiring special hardware. Beckhoff Automation LLCwww.beckhoffautomation.com952.890.0000
