7.2 Fast control

Fast control is used to reduce the system reaction time. This means reading

the inputs, processing the data and writing the outputs need less cycles.

Fig.7-4: Timing Diagram

The configuration of the fast control happens in the u-create studio (see on-

line help "Configure EtherCAT slave").
