Appendix 4.2
(1) Master station (RX) Remote I/O station (input)
This indicates the time from the moment a signal is input to a remote I/O station until the corresponding CPU
device turns ON (OFF).
(a) Expression
The meanings of symbols in the table are as follows:
• SM : Master station sequence scan time
• LS : Link scan time
• n: LS SM (Digits past the decimal point are rounded up to the nearest integer.)
• Rio: Remote I/O response time
With block guarantee of cyclic data per station
Calculation
value
Asynchronous mode
(SM n) + (LS 1) + Rio
Normal value
(SM n) + (LS 2) + Rio
Max. value
(b) Calculation example
Master station sequence scan time of 20ms, link scan time of 3ms, and remote I/O response time of 1.5ms
With block guarantee of cyclic data per station
Calculation
value
Asynchronous mode
(20 1) + (3 1) + 1.5 = 24.5ms
Normal value
(20 1) + (3 2) + 1.5 = 27.5ms
Max. value
Transmission delay time of master station <->
remote I/O station
Synchronous mode
{(SM n) 1} + Rio
{(SM n) 2} + Rio
Synchronous mode
{(20 1) 1} + 1.5 = 21.5ms
{(20 1) 2} + 1.5 = 41.5ms
Without block guarantee of cyclic data per station
Asynchronous mode
SM + (LS 1) + Rio
{(SM n) 1} + Rio
SM + (LS 2) + Rio
{(SM n) 2} + Rio
Without block guarantee of cyclic data per station
Asynchronous mode
20 + (3 1) + 1.5 = 24.5ms
{(20 1) 1} + 1.5 = 21.5ms
20 + (3 2) + 1.5 = 27.5ms
{(20 1) 2} + 1.5 = 41.5ms
