Fig. 160: Sampling times
"StartTimeNextLatch"
The process data "StartTimeNextLatch" (index 1A01) is activated by default. The StartTimeNextlatch
process data is 32 bits wide. During each process data cycle the time is specified at which the next SYNC1
pulse and therefore the next block of sample values begins. StartTimeNextLatch thus changes in each cycle
by the amount of that task cycle time with which this terminal is operated. This time specification is based on
the terminal’s local Distributed Clocks time. The EL5101-0011 maps only the 64-bit distributed clocks time.
In this way all samples can be synchronized with other time data within the EtherCAT bus based on the
known oversampling factor.
