The user-programmable TM FAST technology module in the S7-1500 / ET 200MP gives you the ability to control extremely fast processes. Reaction times in the microsecond to nanosecond range are possible.
This article contains a Getting Started project and an example how you can load a TM FAST program with Siemens TIA Portal from a S7-1500 CPU into the module.
The TM FAST module can be deployed wherever extremely fast and high-precision responses are essential, and where a standard PLC is no longer sufficient. Solutions with the TM FAST outperform a standard PLC with respect to precision, resolution and reaction time by a factor of up to 1000.
Applications for this are:
- Short, adjustable and reproducible responses
- Position detection
- Output of precise pulses and pulse patterns
- Acquisition of fast signals
