Refresh Cycle
Freeze command freezes
slave input refresh process.
Last input data transferred to
transmit buffer will be
transferred over PROFIBUS.
Note The Global-Control command as set in the CIO words is transferred to the Unit together with
the I/O data, but the Global-Control command is sent over the PROFIBUS network, following
the I/O data. The Freeze command forces an immediate update of the PROFIBUS transmis-
sion buffers in the slave device, with the last input value sampled. This input data is then
transferred to the PROFIBUS Master Unit, with the next I/O data exchange cycle.
 Sync / Unsync commands
Sending a Global-Control - Sync command to a slave device has the following effect
• The slave device will update its physical outputs only once with the last received PROFIBUS
output data despite new output data being received from the PROFIBUS Master Unit.
• If a new Global-Control - Sync command is sent, the slave device will update its physical out-
puts only once with the most recently received output data.
• If a Global-Control - Unsync command is sent, the slave device will revert back to its original
situation and transfer updated output information to the Master Unit with each subsequent I/O
data exchange message.
Note If a Global-Control command contains both a Sync and an Unsync command, the Unsync will
prevail.
The figure shown below illustrates the Sync/Unsync feature as implemented by the CJ1W-PRM21
PROFIBUS Master Unit.
