Appendix 2 Processing Time; Time Chart And Communication Time Of C24 Transmission Sequence - Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC IQ-R series Reference Manual

Appendix 2
Time chart and communication time of C24 transmission
sequence
The following figure shows a communication time chart when accessing programmable controller from an external device via
C24.
When accessing CPU module with C24 mounted from an external device
The following shows the time chart when the message wait time is specified.
For the number of scans required for processing a read/write request, refer to the following section.
Page 459 Number of scans required for processing
For the number of points processed per communication, refer to the following section.

• The communication between C24 and CPU module is always performed after END. Therefore, the scan
time becomes longer according to the communication time (the time to interrupt to the CPU module).
• The number of scans required for processing to request read/write operation to the CPU module differs
depending on the content of the request. For example, when a read operation that requires a scan is
requested, it takes an extra time of 1 scan + T2.
• The number of scans required for the processing varies depending on the Service Processing Setting. It can
be set in the parameter settings of Engineering tool. For details of Service Processing Setting, refer to the
user's manual of the CPU module used.
