Communications time for each Slave: Time required for each Slave
Σ (Communications time for each Slave) is the total of the processing time
of each Slave in the network.
MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL processing time:
3.5 [ms]
Only when Slaves with input, output, or mixed I/O of more than 8
bytes exist.
Explicit messages processing time:
