Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An industrial control system provides for distributed processing of position related signals by remote I/O modules to correct for spatial offsets of sensors or actuators associated with the I/O modules, the latter which may receive position data and may correct timing signals detected at the I/O modules according to a stored position offset within the I/O modules.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What I claim is: 1. An I/O module for industrial control comprising: an input for receiving a trigger signal from a first sensor at a first stationary location, the trigger signal indicating passage of an object located stationary in a moving frame, the moving frame being defined by detectable registration marks spaced apart on a moving conveyor; a network interface adapted to communicate with an industrial control network to receive periodic motion data from an encoder indicati…
