Technology functions
3.2 Pulse generators
Controller
For the pulse width modulation (PWM) mode, the user program directly accesses the control
and feedback interface of the channel.
A reconfiguration via the instructions WRREC/RDREC and parameter assignment data
record 128 is supported. You can find additional information in section Parameter data
records (PWM) (Page 169)
You control the on-load factor (pulse
field of the control interface. Pulse width modulation generates continuous pulses based on
this value. The period duration is adjustable.

Starting the output sequence
The control program must output the enable for the output sequence with the help of the
software enable (SW_ENABLE 0 → 1). The feedback bit STS_SW_ENABLE indicates that
the software enable is pending at the PWM.
If the software enable is activated (rising edge), STS_ENABLE is set. The output sequence
runs continuously, as long as SW_ENABLE is set.
Note
Output control signal TM_CTRL_DQ
• If TM_CTRL_DQ = 1, the technology function takes over the control and generates pulse
sequences at the output PWM DQA.
• If TM_CTRL_DQ = 0, the user program takes over the control and the user can set the
output PWM DQA directly via the control bit SET_DQA.
