Cycle time of an analog output module
The synchronization time for analog output modules refers to the output of the digital-analog
converter

. Because the impedance of the connected actuator including connection cable
is unknown in output modules but has a significant impact on the signal run time, the settling
time cannot be added as a fixed value. The respective manuals of the output modules
specify the typical load settling times as reference point. But in practice, a measurement with
an oscilloscope is required for a precise measurement of the settling time. The settling time
may exceed the actual end of the cycle due to very short cycle times and very high
capacitive loads. The cycle time is made up of the following time intervals: t
