2 MULTIPLE CPU SYSTEM

2.3.3 Multiple CPU high speed refresh function

This function is used to update the data between internal devices of Motion CPU and the Multiple CPU high speed transmission area. This occurs every operation cycle as defined in the device setting of automatic refresh in the self CPU.

(1) Application example of Multiple CPU high speed refresh function

Multiple CPU high speed refresh function is used as in the following applications.

1)Read the data such as the real current value and synchronous encoder current value with PLC CPU at high speed.

2)Exchange the FIN waiting signal at high speed.
