I have an application where I need a single SSI encoder to connect to both a safety controller (SICK Flexi Soft) and a general-purpose PLC (S7-1500 with ET200SP I/O).
The safety vendor can set up their input modules as either an SSI master or SSI "listener".
They suggest that I might be able to connect the ET200SP module as an SSI Master and connect the Flexi Soft as an SSI "listener".
Has anyone done that ? I am not familiar with "splitting" SSI signals.
