Cycle and Response Times of the S7-400
9.2 Cycle Time Calculation
Process Image Updating
The table below shows the CPU times for process image updating (process image transfer
time). The times listed in the table are "ideal values" that may be increased by the
occurrence of interrupts and by CPU communications.
The transfer time for process image updating is calculated as follows
C + portion in central controller (from row A of the following table)
The tables below show the individual portions of the transfer time process image updating
(process image transfer time). The times listed in the table are "ideal values" that may be
increased by the occurrence of interrupts and by CPU communications.
Table 9-3 Portions of the process image transfer time
Portions
n = number of bytes in the process image
C Base load
O In the central rack
