Cycle times for servo control
This following table lists the number of axes that can be operated with a Control Unit in the
servo control mode. The number of axes is also dependent on the cycle times of the
controller:

set sampling time.
At the 31.25 µs cycle level you can additionally setup the following objects:

Sensor Module External (SME) and the SMC20 supported with the current firmware and hardware. These can be
•
identified by the final digit of the order number ... 3.
No additional axis can be operated at this cycle level.
•
The following combinations are permissible for current controller cycle mixed operation:
● Servo control with 125 µs and servo control with 250 µs (max. 2 clock cycle levels can be
● Servo control with 62.5 µs and servo control with 125 µs (max. 2 clock cycle levels can be
Note the following: 1 axis with 31.25 µs corresponds to
● 2 servo control axes with 62.5 µs
● 4 servo control axes with 125 µs
● 8 U/f control axes with 500 µs
