PC Link System I/O Response Time
Appendix C
Maximum I/O Response Time (in Synchronous Mode)
Maximum I/O response time =
Input ON delay + (Cycle time of PLC #0
×
2) + (PC Link cycle time
×
2) + Poll-
ing sequence processing time + (Cycle time of PLC #7
×
(n + 1)) + Output ON
delay
• Example Calculation
If the PLCs are CVM1/CV-series PLCs, the multiplier (n) is 2.
Maximum I/O response time =
1.5 + (20
×
2) + (32.4
×
2) + 120 + (50
×
3) + 15 = 386.5 ms
Note
(1) The I/O response time may be extended by environmental factors such as noise.
(2) Differences in I/O response times among different PLC models:
The PC Link Unit’s I/O response time is different in C1000H/C2000H PLCs and CVM1/CV-series
PLCs. When a CVM1/CV-series CPU Unit is operating in synchronous mode, it one PLC execution
cycle longer to read data from the PC Link, in comparison with a C1000H/C2000H PLC.
