Unit Startup Time
When the MC Unit is turned ON or reset, it performs initialization processing and then turns ON the Manual
Mode Flag. The MC Unit can receive commands from the CPU Unit only after the Manual Mode Flag has
turned ON. Approximately 600 ms is required for the Manual Mode Flag to be turned ON.
Affects on CPU Unit Cycle Time
The cycle time of the CPU Unit will be increased by the following time for each MC Unit mounted in the PLC.
The time will be longer when the motors are moving than when the servos are unlocked.
The cycle time will also be increased if the IOWR or IORD instructions are used to read/write position data or
parameters in the MC Unit. The following tables shows the increase in the cycle time when position data for 1
to 4 positions is read or written.
Data Transfer and Saving Times
Large volumes of data can be written to or read from the command area using the IOWR instructions. Refer to
SECTION 4 Data Transfer and Storage
for details on using the command area to transfer data.
The data read/write times are listed in the following tables.
Up to 20 words can be transferred per CPU Unit cycle. Longer CPU Unit cycle times will thus increase the data
transfer time.
Conditions: All axes are servo-locked and stopped.
The CPU Unit cycle time is 2 ms.
