Cycle Load Caused by FMS Connections
When calculating the reaction times with FMS connections, the run time of the
function blocks (FBs) in the S7-300 CPU (314-1 see Table 4-2 ) is the decisive
factor.
The table below shows the cycle load resulting from the available FCs in ms. The
values were obtained using a data length of 230 bytes (array).
