Triggering of a hardware interrupt
Triggering of a hardware interrupt
When a hardware interrupt occurs, the CPU interrupts execution of the user program and
processes the hardware interrupt OB. The event that triggered the interrupt is entered in the
start information of the hardware interrupt OB.
Note
Diagnostics "Hardware interrupt lost" (from I/O module)
Avoid creating hardware interrupts cyclically.
If the hardware interrupt load is too high, hardware interrupts can get lost depending on the
number of I/O modules and the communication load.
