The load in a controller caused by a command from an operator station or an information
management station is non-recurrent and relatively small. It can be disregarded.

I/O signals (including calculated variants) with NORMAL_TREAT = 1 (event handling
selected) will give rise to increased load when the event occurs, which means VALUE changed
(DI) or LIMIT exceeded (AI). However this is taken care of by having the stipulated reserve
capacity.

Full data sets (that is with 24 DAT values) are assumed. However the length of the data sets has
little effect on the load in Advant Controller 450.
Figure 3-11, sending data sets and Figure 3-12, receiving data sets show the additional load
from these applications. The CPU load caused by the basic network communication between
two nodes is included in the CPU base load figures given.
