7 Tag Data Link Functions
7-16
NJ/NX-series CPU Unit Built-in EtherNet/IP Port User’s Manual (W506)
• NX1P2 CPU Units
• You can execute the tag data link service, option board service or system services in parallel
with the execution of tasks.
• The order of execution priority is tag data link service, option board service and then system
services.
• NJ-series CPU Units
• Execution of the tag data link service is given priority over execution of the priority-17 periodic
task. However, execution of the primary periodic task and priority-16 periodic task is given
even higher priority.
• The system services are executed in the unused time between execution of all of the tasks
and tag data link service.
