clock slaves. On this devices the “High Resolution Time Stamp” object is mapped to an asynchrony receive PDO
with the very same COB-ID as the transmit PDO on the clock master.
Note: The resolution of the EPOS internal microsecond timer depends on the CAN bitrate due to a CAN controller
internal hardware counter is used as timing reference. This hardware counter will be incremented by the bit
time.

Interruption of interpolation mode in case of an error
If a currently running interpolation (index 0x20C4, subindex 0x03 "interpolation status" bit 15 "ip mode active" set)
will be interrupted by the occurance of an error, the EPOS2 reacts as specified for the certain error (i.e. disabling
the controller and changing to the state
switch on disabled).
The interpolation can only be restarted by a re-synchronisation, because the state
Operation enable has to be
entered again, whereby the bit "ip mode active" will be cleared.
