Controlinc 1746-C (Version 5.21) Network Master Users Guide (2004-11-18)
Note 7: Once the 1746-C reads in a table from the M0 file, the 1746-C will always deliver the
feedback table almost immediately … whether or not it was a read or write table command.
Therefore, the best practice to maintain synchronization between the PLC and 1746-C is for the
PLC to “conceptually” wait for a feedback response from the 1746-C before continuing … even
if only to throw away the table.
This will also increase the 1746-C overall speed because it waits for an acknowledgement of
the feedback before continuing with command execution.
REMEMBER … Speed in servicing of the M1 transfer requests expedites system throughput.
