(2) Master station (RY) Local station (RX), Master station (RWw) Local station
(RWr)
This indicates the time from the moment a master station CPU device turns ON (OFF) until the corresponding
local station CPU device turns ON (OFF).
Or, it indicates the time from when data is set to a master station CPU device until the data is stored to the
corresponding local station CPU device.
(a) Expression
The meanings of symbols in the table are as follows:
• SM: Master station sequence scan time
• LS: Link scan time
• SL: Local station sequence scan time
• n: LS SM (Digits past the decimal point are rounded up to the nearest integer.)
• t: LS m SM (Digits past the decimal point are rounded up to the nearest integer.)
• k: LS SL (Digits past the decimal point are rounded up to the nearest integer.)
• m: Constant set in the extended cyclic setting
Expanded cyclic setting
With block guarantee of cyclic data per station

(b) Calculation example
Master station sequence scan time of 20ms, link scan time of 3ms, expanded cyclic setting "double", and local
station sequence scan time of 10ms
