PLC performance
index
It is possible to use the PLC performance
index in order to limit the number of PLC
functions executed by ePS Network
Services, to prevent ePS Network
Services from overloading the control
unnecessarily.
The cycle time allocated to each ePS
Network Services function is directly
proportional to the number of ePS
Network Services functions executed.
Since there are different PLCs with
different command execution times, a
sensible quantity must be determined for
this index.
