Range:
(0 to 13421) x 100 µs with up to 16 cams
(0 to 26843) x 100 µs with up to 32 cams
(0 to 53686) x 100 µs with up to 64 cams
(0 to 65535) x 100 µs with up to 128 cams
With a time-based cam, you must specify a cam start and an activation time in place of the cam end.
You can set a resolution of 100 µs for the activation time. The time runs starting with the activation of
the cam.
Conditions of setting default times:
0 µs: A cam with 0 µs activation time is never activated
0 µs < t ≤ 400 µs: The FM 352 sets a minimum cam activation time of approx. 330 µs.
t > 400 µs: FM 352 calculates the actual activation time t

The maximum error is always less than the cam cycle time.
