3.5.2 Communication cycle
3.5.3 Transmission delays
3 - 50
The communication cycle is the time interval between the moment a polling or a
bit strobe request is sent to a slave node and the moment another request is sent
to the same node. A different communication cycle can be set for each node by
setting the production inhibit time parameter.
The communication cycle for each slave node can be calculated using the
following expression:
Communication cycle LC = LS + production inhibit time (module: ms)
(1) Input transmission delay
The input transmission delay can be calculated using the following expressions:
When the reception data is read by the
Maximum value
Normal value
(2) Output transmission delay
The output transmission delay can be calculated using the following expressions:
When the transmission data is sent by the
Maximum value
Normal value
