Note
There is no intersection between the send cycles for the "even" and "uneven" ranges.
Explanations for the above table:
1) It is only possible to set send cycles from the "even" range when IO devices with RT class
"RT" are assigned to a synchronization domain. Likewise, only the reduction ratios from the
"even" range can be set for a send cycle setting from the "even" range.
2) It is generally only possible to set a reduction ratio of 1:1 between the update time and
send cycle for IO devices (ET200S IM151-3 PN HS, SINAMICS S) which are operated in
isochronous mode. In this case, the update time mode must always be set to "fixed factor"
(under "I/O device" properties, "IO cycle" tab, "Mode" pulldown menu). This means that
STEP 7 will not automatically adjust the update time and, therefore, that the update time will
always correspond to the send cycle.
3) The send cycles from the "uneven" range can be set only if a synchronization domain
does not include any IO devices with RT class "RT". Likewise, only the reduction ratios from
the "uneven" range can be set for a send cycle setting from the "uneven" range.
4) Isochronous operation is not compatible with IRT "high flexibility".
5) Uneven send cycles can be used only if the IO systems assigned to the synchronization
domain do not include any RT or IRT "high flexibility" devices.
Furthermore, the send cycles which can actually be set are determined by the intersection
between the send cycles supported by all the devices in the synchronization domain.
The reduction ratio between the update time of an IO device and the send cycle is set in the
"Properties" of the PROFINET interface for the relevant device.
Send cycles for SINAMICS drive units
A SINAMICS drive unit with PROFINET interface which supports IRT*/IRT permits send
cycle settings of between 0.5 ms and 4.0 ms in a 250 µs time frame.
