Product overview

2.1

The FM 352

The FM 352 function module is a single-channel, electronic cam controller for integration in
the S7-300 automation system. It supports rotary and linear axes. The module supports
initiators and incremental or absolute encoders (SSI) for position feedback. When operating
in slave mode, the FM 352 can listen in on the SSI frame of an absolute encoder.
You can specify up to 128 position-based or time-based cams that you can assign to 32 cam
tracks as required. The first 13 cam tracks are output via the digital outputs on the module.
For information about the functions and settings of the cam control, refer to the next
chapters.
You can operate several FM 352 stations simultaneously. The module also supports
combinations with other FM/CP modules. A typical application is the combination of the
module with an FM 351 positioning module.
You can operate an FM 352 in a central and distributed configuration on PROFINET or
PROFIBUS-DP.
