4.5 Performance Factors
There are many factors that affect the timing of I/O as it flows through the system. Primary factors include:
• CPU Sweep Time
• Configured PROFINET IO Update Rate(s)
• Number of PROFINET IO Devices
• Number of IO modules
• Network latency and loading (for example, switching hardware, additional non-PROFINET network traffic)
• I/O Module Filter Times
When designing a PROFINET IO system, consider and weigh these factors appropriately to achieve an optimal
IO system for the application.
