The actual performance depends on a variety of factors that affect CPU Unit operation such as
the function's operating conditions, user program complexity, and cycle time. Use the perfor-
mance specifications as guidelines, not absolute values.
The interrupt response time is the time it takes between an OFF-to-ON signal (or ON-to-OFF signal for
down-differentiation) at the interrupt input terminal until the corresponding I/O interrupt task is actually
executed. The total response time is the sum of the hardware response time and software response
time.
