Calculations The equation for the cycle time from above is as follows:
Cycle time = Overseeing
time + Program execution time + I/O refresh time +
Peripheral device servicing time

The
I/O refresh time would be as follows for two16-point Input Units, four 8-point
Input Units, two 12-point Output Units (12-point Units are treated as 16-point
Units), and five 8-point Output Units controlled by the PC:
8 pts

6-2-2 PC with Link Units
Here,
the cycle
time is computed for a PC with a CPU21-E or CPU23-E CPU that
has
a Memory Unit with a clock function installed.
The PC configuration for this
could be as shown below.
The CPU controls three 8-point Input Units, three 8-point Output Units, a Host
Link
Unit, and a Remote I/O Master Unit connected to a Remote I/O Slave Rack
containing four 16-point Input Units and four 12-point Output Units.
It
is assumed that the program contains
5,000 instructions requiring an average
of
0.47
µ
s each to execute, and that nothing is connected to the RS-232C port
and no SYSMAC NET/SYSMAC LINK Unit is mounted.
