8.4.2
Notify Input Port Change
When a CIE-H14A operates as a Modbus/TCP slave and this function is enable, if status
of input ports are changed, CIE-H14A immediately sends the master response packets to
Modbus/TCP masters regardless of master’s query.
8.4.3
Valid Time
CIE-H14A only recognizes signals of the input ports as the valid signals when the signal
lasts for the [Valid Time]. If the signals are not maintained for the [Valid Time], the input
signals will be ignored. The unit used for the [Valid Time] is 1ms. However, because the
accuracy is only guaranteed in 10ms, the designated values are rounded down in units of
10ms.
8.4.4
Delay
Output values are reflected to CIE-H14A
’s output ports later than the time set to [Delay].
For example, if [Delay] is set to ‘0’, the output values are reflected to the ou
tput ports
immediately. Although it is allowed to set the values in 1ms, it is accurate to 10ms, rounded
down.)
If the timer for the [Delay] is already running, all the subsequent orders for giving
signals to the output ports are ignored.
8.5
Internet Switch
As one of the control methods, all of our digital I/O controllers support Modbus/TCP.
According to the standard of this protocol, a system is composed of master and slave.
Our controllers support both master and slave modes, so you can make various systems
such as 1:1 or 1:N by combining some of the products.
You can make a system that transfers input information through the TCP/IP network and
outputs the value. This function is called “Internet Switch”
.
Refer to the [Internet Switch], [Combinations of digital I/O Controllers] documents on
our web site for details.
