The calculated cycle time of a S7-400H CPU must be multiplied by a CPU-specific factor.
The table below lists these factors:

CPU 410-5H stand-alone mode
Long synchronization cables may increase cycle times. This extension can have the factor 2
- 5 with a cable length of 10 km.
Operating system execution time at the cycle control point
The table below shows the operating system execution time at the cycle checkpoint of the
CPUs.

The program runtime at interrupt level must be added to this time extension.
If several interrupts are nested, their times must be added together.
