5.4.8 Setting the cycle time
In a POWERLINK network, the managing node allocates data transfer time for
data from each node in a cyclic manner within a guaranteed cycle time. The
Cycle Time is the time between two consecutive Start of Cyclic (SoC) frames –
i.e. repeating – process. The Cycle Time includes the time for data transmission
and some idle time before the beginning of the next cycle. See the
MAN EM58_HS58_HM58 PL E 1.1.odt
