Adjusting Scan Time
The DGRD instruction requires a scan time longer than the filter time plus 6 ms.
The filter time depends on the input terminal used as shown below.
When the actual scan time is too short to execute the DGRD instruction, use the constant scan function. When the input fil-
ter time is set to 3 ms, set a value of 9 or more (in ms) to special data register D8022 (constant scan time preset value). See
page 5-27. When the input filter time is changed, set a proper value to D8022 to make sure of the minimum required scan
time shown above.
Example: DGRD
The following example demonstrates a program to read data from four digital switches (IDEC’s DFBN-031D-B) to a data
register in the CPU module, using a 8-point DC input module and a 16-point transistor sink output module.

When input I5 is on, the 4-digit value from BCD digital switches is read to
data register D10.
