Number of Remote Drops on a Bus

The number of remote drops on a bus depends on the baud rate and the total number of I/O points in the remote drops.

Since the maximum Genius bus scan time is 400mS, and the bus scan time contribution of one fully±loaded remote drop is 20mS, only twenty fully±loaded remote drops are supported on a single bus that operates at 153.6 Kbaud. If remote drops are not fully±loaded, more may be used on a bus operating at these baud rates.

If some remote drops are not fully±loaded, more than the maximum number given below can be used. The table in appendix A will help you estimate the total number of remote drops and data bytes that can be accommodated on a bus that has one Bus Controller, one Genius Hand±held Monitor, no datagrams or Global Data communications, and no Genius I/O blocks. The Genius I/O System User's Manual explains how to calculate the bus scan time for a specific bus.

Maximum Number of Drops per Baud Rate

153.6K baud extended: Up to 20 fully±loaded drops, or up to 30 drops with the total number of I/O bytes less than the limits listed in the table.

153.6K baud standard: Up to 20 fully±loaded drops, or up to 30 drops with the total number of I/O bytes less than the limits listed in the table.

76.8K baud: Up to 10 fully±loaded drops, or up to 30 drops with the total number of I/O bytes less than the limits listed in the table.

38.4K baud: Up to 5 fully±loaded drops, or up to 14 drops with the total number of I/O bytes less than the limits listed in the table.
