5 I/O Refreshing Methods
5 - 10
NX-series Position Interface Units User’s Manual (W524)
With task period prioritized refreshing, shortening the task period is given priority over synchronizing the
I/O timing with other NX Units that use synchronous I/O refreshing.
 Input Prioritized Refreshing
• The Communications Coupler Unit performs I/O processing so that the input values of NX Units
are read during the next I/O refresh. (See following figure (a).)
• The I/O refreshing interval changes according to the processing conditions of the Communica-
tions Coupler Unit and host communications master (see following figure (c)), so the inputs are
read at the next I/O refresh. (See following figure (b).)
• Because input processing is given priority, output processing is performed after input processing
is completed. (See following figure (d).)
*1. The timing of I/O is given as an example. The actual timing will vary.
