Offset between synchronization 
timing and timing to read inputs
This time is automatically
calculated by the Sysmac
Studio.
(a) All Input Units that support synchronous 
     input refreshing read their inputs simultaneously.
I/O refreshing synchronization
The longest AD conversion time 
is within one cycle.

(b) The CPU Unit reads the 
     data that is read by the 
     Unit at I/O refreshing.
(c) Interval of I/O refreshing
     is not constant.
