How to optimize industrial motor communications, Part 2, strategies

Control Engineering

There’s no need for clock synchronous application operation, because it’s a very simple application.The cycle times, ver roughly, are tens of millisecond. This also is not synchronized via a clock because it’s single axis and maybe not required, but the cycle times are a little more stringent.
