Configuring output cams / cam tracks

Overview
The type of cam output must be selected during the configuration of the TO outputCam and
TO camTrack. The following output types are possible:

Procedure
To achieve the best possible output cam resolution on the onboard I/Os of a SIMOTION D410,
activate the output and select "Cam output to high-speed digital output (DO)".

Explanation
the cam output depends on the hardware used.
Supported hardware:
● SIMOTION D4x5‑2 (terminal X142): Resolution 1 μs
● TM17 High Feature: Resolution 1 μs
● TM15: Typical resolution 125 μs (DRIVE‑CLiQ cycle clock)
● SIMOTION D410-2 (DI/DO 8 to 15): Resolution of current controller clock cycle (typ. 125 μs
for servo drive)
The cam output is performed via onboard outputs of the SIMOTION CPU. The output is via a
hardware timer, whereby the cam output is achieved with a resolution with respect to time <
servo cycle clock.
Supported hardware:
● SIMOTION D410 (terminal X121)
● SIMOTION D4x5 (terminal X122, X132)
● SIMOTION C240, C240 PN (terminal X1)
The output cam calculations are performed in the processing cycle (IPO or IPO2 cycle or in the
servo cycle). Actual cam output is performed in servo cycles. The resolution with respect to time
of the cam output is generally reduced by the output cycle of the I/O used.
The resolution is therefore dependent as follows:
● For the standard I/O (e.g. ET 200), on the cycle time of the bus system (PROFIBUS DP /
PROFINET I/O)
● For the TM15 / TM17, on the cycle time of the bus system (PROFIBUS Integrated /
PROFIBUS DP / PROFINET IO)
● For the TM15 DI/DO, TM31, TM41, TB30, on the configured sampling time:
– cu.p0799 (CU inputs/outputs sampling time) for the onboard outputs
– p4099 (TMxx inputs/outputs sampling time) for TB30, TM15 DI/DO, TM31, and TM41
Supported hardware:
● Onboard outputs (SIMOTION D, controller extension CX, SINAMICS control unit CU3xx)
● Centralized I/O (SIMOTION C)
● Distributed I/O via PROFIBUS DP/PROFINET I/O (e.g. ET 200, ...)
● Drive-related I/O (TM15, TM15 DI/DO, TM17 High Feature, TM31, TM41, TB30)
