7.2 Cautions on Fixed-Scan Clocks and Fixed Scan Execution Type
Programs
(1) Fixed-scan Clocks (SM409 to SM415)
When system switching occurs, fixed-scan clock measurement is suspended until
system switching is complete.
When system switching is complete, the new control system CPU module starts all
fixed-scan clocks from OFF.
Therefore, the OFF time is extended (T+t') as shown in Diagram 7.6.
The maximum value of the extension time when t=t' is (T+t).
(2) Fixed-scan Clocks (SM420 to SM424)
When system switching is complete, SM420 to SM424 remain OFF in the new control
system CPU module.
Execute the DUTY instruction in the new control system CPU module to make SM420
to SM424 usable in the new control system CPU module.
[Example]
A program starting an SM420 timing clock (1 scan: ON, 3 scan: OFF) by executing the
DUTY instruction in the new control system CPU module.
* 1 : This is the contact point for 1 scan: ON in the new control system after SM1518 system
switching.
If DUTY instructions are executed for SM1518 shutdown, the DUTY instructions are executed
on the second scan following system switching.
