15.4 Scan Synchronous Function
This function sets whether link scan is synchronized with the sequence scan, using the
network parameter setting.
network parameter setting.
15.4.1 Synchronous mode
Performs data link using the scan synchronized with the sequence program. The
operation overview in the synchronous mode is shown in Figure 15.1.
In general, the transmission delay is smaller in the synchronous mode than in the
asynchronous mode.
Select the synchronous mode if the transmission delay is noticeably long.
However, as sequence scan is synchronized with link scan in the synchronous mode,
the link scan is prolonged if the sequence scan is long. In this case, select the
asynchronous mode.

Important
While in the synchronous mode, the scan time must not exceed the time specified for the
corresponding transmission speed, as shown below. If the specified time is exceeded, a time
out error occurs at each station and the station becomes faulty.
