Remote I/O Communications Characteristics

Section 8-1

Slaves with More Than 8 Bytes of Input or Out put

Refresh Time

TRT = TOH + TBYTE-IN BIN + TBYTE-OUT BOUT [ms]

 

TOH :

Protocol overhead

 

TBYTE-IN :

The input byte transmission time

 

BIN :

The number of input words

 

TBYTE-OUT :

The output byte transmission time

 

BOUT :

The number of output words

For Input Slaves take BOUT to be 0, and for Output Slaves take BIN to be 0.

The refresh time is the time required for I/O data to be exchanged between the PC’s CPU Unit and the DeviceNet Unit. The CPU Unit’s cycle time is increased when a DeviceNet Unit is mounted, as shown below.

0.7 + 0.001 the number of words refreshed (See note 1.)

 

 

Note 1. The number of words refreshed is the total number of words in the I/O area that are used by the Slaves, including any unused words between words actually used by the Slaves. For example, if there are only two Input Slaves with node addresses 1 and 5, the 5 input words for nodes 1 through 5 would be refreshed even though the input words for nodes 2, 3, and 4 are unused.

2.If message communications are being performed, just add the number of words used in message communications to the above number of words for whenever messages are being processed.

3.When the message communications are performed, an event execution time must be added to the PC cycle time.

4.For details about refresh time or PC cycle time, refer to operation manual of the PC.
