To edit update intervals

•To edit the update interval for an object, double-click its value in the Update Interval column and make the edit.

•Update Interval is the frequency (in milliseconds) that the DAServer acquires data from the topics associated with that device group.

•Different topics can be polled at different rates in a PLC by defining multiple device- group names for the same PLC and setting a different Update Interval for each device group.

Note: When you select another part of the Omron Ethernet DAServer tree hierarchy, you are prompted to save the modifications to the configuration set.

Scan-Based Message Handling

DAServers are based on the concept of polling a hardware device for information. This polling is driven by a need which is expressed in the form of requests from one or more clients. Once a particular piece of information has been requested by a client, the DAServer formulates its own request and sends that request to the hardware device. The DAServer then waits for a response to its request. Once the information has been received, the DAServer passes that information back to the client, and repeats the process until all clients have ceased requesting information.

The rate at which the DAServer will poll a particular device for a specific piece of information is defined in the device group (topic definition) inside the DAServer, using a parameter called the Update Interval. When setting this parameter, there is always a trade-off between the update speed of the device group and the resulting decrease in system responsiveness.

Since you more than likely want very fast response, the temptation is to set the Update Interval to a value close to 0 seconds. However, if every point is polled at this rate, the entire system will suffer due to slow response time. Therefore, you should compromise, and set the Update Interval to a more reasonable value. You could also create multiple device groups for each device, setting the Update Interval to different values, then assigning different items to different device groups depending on how quickly the values change and how quickly you want to see an update of those changes.

Some items, like alarms, change very infrequently but because of their importance require very fast updates. For those kinds of items, you should set the Update Interval at a very small value. If you desire an immediate response, set the Update Interval at 1.

Archiving Configuration Sets

After you have configured your DAServer, you can archive that specific configuration. You can archive more than one configuration set, and subsequently choose different configurations for different purposes.

To archive configuration sets

1.In the DAServer Manager, right-click on the Configuration node in the hierarchy below your DAServer.

2.Select Archive Configuration Set from the shortcut menu.
