FINS Commands Section 5-3
The response format is as follows when the parameter is 01 hex (read):
Parameters Parameter code (command)
Specify the operations for this command as follows:
00 (hex): Initializes the cycle time.
01 (hex): Reads the average, maximum, and minimum cycle time.
Average cycle time (response)
The CPU Unit continuously calculates the cycle time, and remembers the pre-
vious eight cycle times. The “average cycle times” is the average of these
eight cycle times, expressed as four bytes of binary data in 0.1-ms incre-
ments.
The average cycle time is obtained as follows:
Average cycle time = (Sum of 8 previous cycle times)/8
In the following example the average cycle time is 65.0 ms.
Maximum cycle time
The maximum cycle time is the maximum value, of the cycle time measured
after the cycle time initialize request is received. It is expressed in four binary
bytes, in increments of 0.1 ms.
Minimum cycle time
The minimum cycle time is found in the same way as the maximum cycle time
described above.
End code (response)
Refer to 5-1-3 End Codes for information on end codes.
Comments The maximum and minimum cycle times are initialized when operation is
started.
