256; in total, max. 1 000 distributed I/O devices
can be connected via AS-i, PROFIBUS or
of these, IO devices with IRT, max.
64
Number of connectable IO devices for RT,
max.
256
of these, in a line topology, max.
256
Number of IO devices that can be ena-
bled/disabled simultaneously, max.
8; in total over all interfaces
Number of IO devices per tool, max.
8
Update times
Minimum value of update time also depends on
the communication allocation setting for
PROFINET IO, the number of IO devices and the
amount of configured user data
with send clock of 250 µs
250 µs to 4 ms; note: with IRT with isochronous
mode, the minimum update time of 500 µs of the
isochronous OBs is crucial
with send clock of 500 µs
500 µs to 8 ms
with send clock of 1 ms
1 ms to 16 ms
with send clock of 2 ms
2 ms to 32 ms
with send clock of 4 ms
4 ms to 64 ms
with IRT and "odd" send clock parameter as-
signment
Update time = set "odd" send clock (any multiple
of 125 µs: 375 µs, 625 µs to 3 875 µs)
