Response Time to Reflect Servo Drive Status Changes in CPU Unit
The response time starts when status transmitted via MECHATROLINK communications is sampled and con-
tinues until that status is refreshed in the CPU Unit's input status.
The processing time for the changes in status detected in the Servo Drive to be sent using MECHATROLINK
communications is indicated as T
SRV_IN
:

The time for the Servo Drive status to reach the PCU via MECHATROLINK communications is indicated as
T
MLK
:
MECHATROLINK transfer cycle

1
The maximum time from the end refresh of the user program's cycle in which the command was sent until the
command is actually received by the PCU is T
IN_REF
:
(CPU cycle time or MECHATROLINK communications cycle, whichever is longer) + CPU Unit's cycle time
×
1
The maximum value for the time until changes in the Servo Drive status are reflected in the CPU Unit's user
program, as indicated by T
RES
, is a total of these values, as follows:
T
RES(MAX)
= T
SRV_IN
+ T
MLK
+ T
IN_REF
Note
T
RES
varies depending on the width of T
IN_REF
.
Example:
CPU Unit cycle time:
1 ms
PCU communications setting: Transfer cycle: 1 ms
Communications cycle = 1 (transfer cycle
×
1 = 1 ms)
Connected Servo Drive:
W-series Servo Drive + JUSP-NS115
The command response time for the above conditions is as follows:
(This example applies when no warning has occurred in the PCU.)
Note
When mounting a Position Control Unit to a CS-series Long-distance Expansion Rack, refer to the graph
on I/O refresh time coefficients in the
CS-series CPU Unit Operation Manual
(Cat. No. W339).
