The settings will be saved and the Environment Setting Dialog Box will close.
The Keep Latest Value setting specifies the number of scans to process before the I/O service
clears the input registers.
If the high-speed scan time setting is set to 0.250 ms or 0.125 ms, the scan at which the input reg-
isters are cleared will differ for the MP2000-series Optional Module and the 218IFD and SVC32
Function Modules that are built into the CPU Unit.
In the following example, an input error occurs simultaneously on the MP2000-series Optional
Module and the 218IFD and SVC32 Function Modules in the CPU Unit when the high-speed scan
setting is set to 0.250 ms and the Keep Latest Value setting is set to 5 scans.
The input registers in the 218IFD and SVC32 Function Modules built into the CPU Unit are
cleared on the sixth scan that immediately follows the specified number of scans, whereas on the
MP2000-series Optional Module, the input registers are cleared on the seventh service scan that
immediately follows the specified number of scans.
