Product overview Product overview EtherCAT Box - Introduction The EtherCAT system has been extended with EtherCAT Box modules with protection class IP 67. Through the integrated EtherCAT interface the modules can be connected directly to an EtherCAT network without an additional Coupler Box. The high-performance of EtherCAT is thus maintained into each module. The extremely low dimensions of only 126 x 30 x 26.5 mm (h x w x d) are identical to those of the Fieldbus Box extension modules.

Product overview 2.9.7 Angle measurement The angle relative to gravity can be calculated directly in the EP1816-3008 (CoE 0x8080:1D). However, the complex trigonometric calculations would have undue impact on the cycle time of the Box, so that in this mode the angle resolution is limited to 1°. In cases where higher resolution and accuracy is required, the calculations should be executed on a PC.
