Core X3 Minimum Motion cycle Time

[Fred74]

Hello,

Today, on X3 core, the minimum Motion task cycle time is 2msec.

When will we have 1msec?

Thank you

Please consider that not the motion but the EtherCat master so the data transfer rate and its jitter is the limiting reason. See online documentation for actual features. At the moment we are trying to improve the cycle time on X3 to 1ms but I cannot tell you a fix date for now.

I think the ctrlX X7 is also a good way to get 1 ms or faster EtherCAT cycle times. Please use X7.
