Intended use of the EJ5021 EtherCAT plug-in module

The EJ5021 EtherCAT plug-in module is designed for frequencies that remain constant or do not change abruptly.
A bouncing signal, such as can occur with a measuring probe, causes frequency jumps ("glitches"). The maximum frequencies that occur and the high rate of frequency change can be outside the working area of the module.
Since these distorted signals are no longer detected by the module, they cannot be evaluated and interpreted as a possible error.
