PC Link System I/O Response Time
Calculating the PC Link Transmission Time
Calculating the PC Link Cycle Time
The following diagram shows the PC Link’s cycle time.
PC Link cycle time = (T

×
Total number of PLCs in PC Link) + 10 ms
T
N
= Transmission time/Node
Example Calculation:
When there are 128 Link Relay bits/Unit and 8 Units are connected, T
N
= 2.8 ms.
PC Link cycle time = 2.8
×
8 + 10 ms = 32.4 ms
Calculating the Polling Sequence Processing Time
The link polling sequence, which is directed to nodes that have not yet joined the PC Link, is sent once every
256 PC Link cycles. Consequently the polling sequence cycle is 256
×
one PC Link cycle.
Polling sequence processing time = 15 ms
