The communication sequence in the separate refresh mode is shown below:
Refresh Time at Master Station for Communication with One Slave Station (Trf)
The master station requires the following time to refresh the transmit and receive data for communication with one slave
station.
[Baud Rate 19200 bps] Tr f = 4.2 ms + 2.4 ms
×
(Transmit Words + Receive Words) + 1 scan time
[Baud Rate 38400 bps] Tr f = 2.2 ms + 1.3 ms
×
(Transmit Words + Receive Words) + 1 scan time
Total Refresh Time at Master Station for Communication with All Slave Stations (Trfn)
The master station requires the following time to refresh the transmit and receive data for communication with all slave
stations, that is the total of refresh times.
[Baud Rate 19200 bps] Tr fn =
∑
Tr f =
∑
{4.2 ms + 2.4 ms
×
(Transmit Words + Receive Words) + 1 scan time}
[Baud Rate 38400 bps] Tr fn =
∑
Tr f =
∑
{2.2 ms + 1.3 ms
×
(Transmit Words + Receive Words) + 1 scan time}
Example: Refresh Time
When data link communication is performed with such parameters as transmit words 6, receive words 6, slave stations 8,
and average scan time 20 ms, then the total refresh time Trf8 for communication with all eight slave stations will be:
[Baud Rate 19200 bps] Tr f8 = {4.2 ms + 2.4 ms
×
(6 + 6) + 20 ms}
×
8 = 424.0 ms
[Baud Rate 38400 bps] Tr f8 = {2.2 ms + 1.3 ms
×
(6 + 6) + 20 ms}
×
8 = 302.4 ms
