The CPU should have a short cycle time to ensure that the data from slave
no. 5 (on the right) is always up to date. This type of structure is only
suitable when the data from slaves on the slow trunk (on the left) is not
critical. You should therefore not connect modules that are able to issue
alarms.

CPU with
short cycle time
subject to fast updates.
For short CPU cycle times the data
of IM-interface no. 5 is always up to date.
slow due to the large number of
interfaces, i.e. transferred data is
not always up to date
