125
Default: 1
Explanation: This is the maximum number of data objects whose data is read from the
CPU per basic cycle.
As information, above the input field beside
Number of configured send
objects
, you can see how many send objects the user configured for the
TIM
- in the
normal cycle and
- in the
fast cycle
.
Name: Cycle pause
Range of
values:
0 ... 32000 [ms]
Default: 1
Explanation: This parameter specifies the duration of an optional pause between 2 basic
cycles.
A pause may be necessary if communication of other modules on the
backplane bus is disrupted too much by the write and read jobs between
the TIM and CPU. This also applies to subscribers on the MPI bus (further
CPUs or PG) if the backplane bus is implemented as a party line. By
setting a suitable time for the pause, the other bus subscribers have time
for their communication.
Specifying a cycle pause may also be necessary to relieve the TIM itself; in
other words, when it becomes clear that it has too little time for other tasks
due to the fast read/write cycle.
Parameters in the Message receive area
Name: Check of source address
Range of
values:
Function active, function deactivated
Default: Function active
Explanation: With this parameter, you specify whether or not the source address of the
sending subscriber is checked prior to accepting data from a received
message. If the function is activated, all messages that do not originate
from the configured partner are discarded.
Note: If a data object receives messages from several partners, the check
of the source address must be deactivated.
