Configuration Guide (AADvance Controller)


Scan Times

The following scan times were taken from a test system consisting of production

modules.

Module

Scan Time

T9401 Digital input module, 24V dc, 8 channel

Single
Dual
Triple

1.23ms
1.73ms
2.08ms

T9431 Analogue input module 24V dc, 8 channel
Single
Dual

Triple


1.26ms
1.91ms

2.33ms

T9451 Digital output module, 24V dc, 8 channel
Single

Dual


1.43ms

2.44ms

AADvance Workbench Sleep Period

57.2ms

Scan overhead per module

0.09ms

The tests did not measure the effect of logic complexity and communications loading.
The scan time is:

(Number of module groups x scan time shown above) + Sleep Period + (Total

modules x scan overhead)

The scan time will vary by up to +/- 5ms (not including the effect of logic and
communications).
Throughput time is the time from input change to output action. Due to the discrete

nature of the scan, the throughput time will vary between one and two scans.

Note: The AADvance application scan time is limited to a minimum of 64ms to allow

all processes to run. Small applications will report a scan time of approximately 57 -

61ms. Large applications may have longer scan times but each scan time will be
consistent to within approximately 5ms.

An example configuration scan time:

T9431 Analogue input simplex modules x 30
T9451 Digital output simplex modules x 18
Total I/O modules

= 48

Estimated scan time

= (30 x 1.23ms) + (18 x 1.43ms) + 57.2ms + (48 x 0.09ms)

= 125.1ms
