3 Introduction
Depending on the operating mode of the modules, transmission
rates of 1 kHz with up to 128 variables (transferred values with
fo
ur byte resolution, real variables) are possible over Ethernet.
3.3.2 Operating the modules via Q.pac
The Q.pac Test Controller is a programmable module with its own
128 Mbyte flash data memory and in addition it
offers a graphi-
cally programmable PAC function. Optionally, EtherCAT is avail-
able as an additional inte
rface with a data rate of up to 10 kHz.
You can connect up to 16 modules to e
ach of the four serial inter-
faces (UARTs) of the Q.pac Test Controller (Fig. 3-3, page 20).
When using Ethernet, with Q.pac you can realize up to
16 vari-
ables (transferred values with four-byte resolution, real variable)
at a sample rate o
f 10 kHz and with EtherCAT even 256 variables
are possible at the sa
me sample rate:
UART data throughput at 24 MBaud
Sample rate 1 kHz
Sample rate 10 kHz
Sample rate 100 kHz
200 real variables
20 real variables
