11-4 I/O Refresh Cycle Time and Network Reaction Time
The I/O refresh cycle time and network reaction time parameters are required
to evaluate local I/O response and I/O communications performance for the
NE1A-series Controller.
I/O Refresh Cycle Time
The I/O reaction time of the NE1A-series Controller is used when calculating
the local I/O reaction time. The I/O refresh cycle time is set to the optimum
value for the configuration from among the following settings: 3.5, 4.0, 4.5,
5.0, 5.5, 6.0, or 6.5 ms. The I/O refresh cycle time can be checked from the
Network Configurator.
The I/O refresh cycle time of the NE1A-series Controller can be checked on
the Mode/Cycle Time Tab Page of the Edit Device Parameters Window.
