6.9.1 CPU Load from Data Set Communication
The CPU load from data set communication can be estimated from the examples in Table 6-11
and Table 6-12. Full data sets (with 24 DAT values) are assumed. However, the length of the
data sets has little effect on the load in Advant Controller 450.
NOTE
The capacity of MasterNet must also be considered when calculating the data set
communication performance.
NOTE
The capacity of MasterNet must also be considered when calculating the data set
communication performance.
6.9.2 CPU Load from Data Set Peripheral Communication
The CPU load from data set peripheral communication can be estimated from the examples in
Table 6-13. Full data set peripherals (8 DAT values) are assumed. However, the length of
the data sets has little effect on the load in Advant Controller 450.
NOTE
The capacity of Advant Fieldbus 100 must also be considered when calculating
the data set peripheral communication performance.
