I/O Refreshing Method Setting
There are the following methods to exchange data between SSI Input Units and the Controller:
Free-Run refreshing, synchronous I/O refreshing, and task period prioritized refreshing.
This section describes how to set the I/O refreshing method for SSI Units, the I/O refreshing methods,
and the differences in I/O refreshing methods for different Controllers.
This section describes the settings of the I/O refreshing method for each Communications Coupler Unit.
EtherCAT Coupler Unit
When an SSI Input Unit is connected to an EtherCAT Coupler Unit, the I/O refreshing method
depends on the
Enable Distributed Clock
setting.
The following table lists the possible combinations.
Version Information
Unit version 1.2 or later and an NX-ECC203 EtherCAT Coupler Unit are required to use task
period prioritized refreshing. If you use unit version 1.1 or earlier and an NX-ECC203 EtherCAT
Coupler Unit, operation is performed with synchronous I/O refreshing.
EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit
When an SSI Input Unit is connected to an EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit, you can use only Free-Run
refreshing. There is no setting.
The following table lists the refresh cycles for Free-Run refreshing, synchronous I/O refreshing, and
task period prioritized refreshing.
