Procedure
To achieve the best possible output cam resolution on the onboard I/Os of a SIMOTION
D4x5-2, activate the output and select "Cam output on output cam output (CAM)."
Then assign a hardware output. To do this, open the Assignment dialog box via
and select
a free (i.e. not yet used) I/O.
Note
Only those I/Os are displayed that have the appropriate output cam functionality (CAM_xx
[channel name, terminal number]). If no suitable I/Os are displayed, you must first configure
the I/Os (I/O must be configured as "output cam (CAM)")

A maximum of 2 edges can be output per processing cycle clock of TO outputCam or TO
camTrack.
Detailed information on configuring the output cam and cam track technology objects can be
found in the
SIMOTION Output Cams and Measuring Inputs Function Manual.

If the X142 I/Os are symbolically interconnected, further interconnection options are offered
for selection under DI, DO, MI, and CAM, depending on the chosen data type.
With the exception of ACTVAL and LEC, these interconnection options are only intended for
diagnostics by the Siemens Hotline.
