Sequence of cyclic program processing
The table below shows the various phases in cyclic program execution.
Table 18- 9 Cyclic program processing
The operating system initiates the scan cycle monitoring time.
2 The CPU copies the values from the process output images to the output modules.
3 The CPU reads the status of inputs of the input modules, and then updates the process
4 The CPU processes the user program in time slices and executes the instructions spec-
5 At the end of a cycle, the operating system executes pending tasks, e.g., loading and
6 Finally, on expiration of any given minimum cycle time, the CPU returns to the start of
the cycle and restarts cycle monitoring.
