The following example shows the method used to calculate the cycle time
when Basic I/O Units only are mounted to the PLC with a CS1D-CPU6@H.
Item
CPU Rack (8 slots)
Expansion Rack (8 slots) x
1 Unit
User program
Peripheral port connection Yes and no
Fixed cycle time process-

RS-232C port connection
Peripheral servicing with
other devices (Special I/O
Units, CS-series CPU Bus
Units, Inner Boards, and
file access)

There will be an increase of up to the
following time when a protocol macro is
executed:
0.1 ms +maximum number of data
words sent or received (0 to 500 words)
x 0.7 µs
There will be an increase of the event
execution times when Host Links or 1:N
NT Links are used.
