Input/Output Instructions (MSG, GSV, SSV, IOT) Chapter 4
The type of network between the controllers determines when the consuming
controller receives the new data and event trigger via the IOT instruction.
The following diagrams compare the receipt of data via an IOT instruction over
EtherNet/IP and ControlNet networks.
Arithmetic Status Flags: Not affected
Fault Conditions: None
Execution:
With this controller Over this network The consuming device receives the data and
event trigger
ControlLogix Backplane Immediately
EtherNet/IP network Immediately
ControlNet network Within the actual packet interval (API) of the
consumed tag (connection)
SoftLogix5800 You can produce and consume tags only over a
ControlNet network.
