6.13 Analog output module SM 332; AO 4 x 16 bit; isochrone; (6ES7332-7ND02-0AB0)
6.13.3
Isochronous mode
Properties
Reproducible reaction times (i.e. of the same length) are achieved in a SIMATIC system by
means of a constant DP bus cycle, and synchronization of the single cyclic processes
outlined below:
● Independent user program cycle. The length of the cycle time may vary due to non-cyclic
program branching.
● Independent and variable DP cycle on the PROFIBUS subnet
● Cyclic operation of the backplane bus of the DP slave.
● Cyclic signal preparation and conversion at the electronic modules of the DP slave.
The constant DP cycle runs in synchronism and at the same length. The CPU run levels
(OB61 to OB64) and isochronous IO are synchronized with this cycle. I/O data are therefore
transferred at defined and constant intervals (isochronous mode.) Maximum flutter: ±50 μs.
Requirements
● The DP master and slave must support isochronous mode. You require
higher.
