Note!
Cycle Time Discrepancy in Realworld Applications
This is the basic cycle time under ideal conditions. In reality, acyclic communication, retries,
and diagnostic data can increase the cycle time, requiring an additional safety margin to be
added.
For the calculation of an overall cycle time (change of a measured signal until reaction of an
actuator), additional parameters like the measurement cycle time of the PROFIBUS PA devices
and IO processing cycle of the controller must be considered.

Retry Limits
Adjusting the Retry Limit for Fiberoptical Communication
If the coupling from PROFIBUS DP to PA is designed redundantly and the DP bus uses optical
fiber as a communication medium, Pepperl+Fuchs recommends increasing the retry limit of the
DP master.
Recommended retry limits corresponding to various baud rates:
Baud Rate
45.45 kBd
93.75 kBd
187.5 kBd
1.5 kBd
3 kBd
6 kBd
12 kBd
