6.7 Acyclic Send
Description
In addition to "Cyclic Send" it is also possible to transfer a further 16 bits of
binary information to the PLC/PC via acyclic services.
The "Acyclic Send" function blocks allow you to specify the information to be
transferred acyclically to the automation system via PROFIBUS DP. The
inputs (plugs) of the function blocks must be connected to the respective
sockets.
The "Acyclic Send" function blocks consists of:
• Eight bits each (= two bytes, byte 0 and byte 1 for binary information)
• One output to PROFIBUS DP each.
Overall, there is one "Acyclic Send" function block for BU1 and BU2.
Schematic
The following schematic shows the "Acyclic Send" function blocks:

Acyclic services
Acyclic Send Data will only be transferred on request.
The information (two bytes) can be found in data record 203.
This data record can be read by every master (PLC or PC) that supports the
acyclic services of PROFIBUS DPV1.
