9.16 Data Link Processing Time
This section explains the link scan time and transmission delay time.
9.16.1 Link scan time
This paragraph explains the link scan time for the CC-Link/LT network.
1. Calculation formula
Link scan time[µs] = a + (b × N) × c
1) a: Constant
Depends on the transmission speed
2) b: Constant
Depends on the transmission speed and point mode
3) c: Constant
Depends on the transmission speed
4) N: Final station number
As shown in the formula above, if the number of stations is held constant, the link scan time is
shorter in 4-point mode than in 16-point mode.
