The dialog window (Fig. 14) will open up. Here, one can enter the cycle time. This
determines how often the data will be propagated in the network. The minimal cycle
time is 2 ms. Default setting is 10 ms. Basically, the cycle time must be set so that
the maximum speed requirements of the system are fulfilled. A fast cycle time leads
to more data traffic in the network. That can create communication bottlenecks.
Especially when using several EMGZ309 amplifiers and other EIP devices in the
same network a well-balanced data speed is important.

Untick the box „Use Unicast Connection over EtherNet/IP“. The use of this feature
is not allowed as it will cause communication problems.
