3. COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE PLC CPU AND THE MOTION CPU IN
THE MULTIPLE CPU SYSTEM
The following tasks can be performed between the PLC CPU and the Motion CPU in
the Multiple CPU system.
• Data transfer between CPUs by the automatic refresh function of the shared CPU
the Multiple CPU system.
• Data transfer between CPUs by the automatic refresh function of the shared CPU
memory
• Control instruction from the PLC CPU to Motion CPU by the Motion dedicated
Instructions
• Reading/writing device data from the PLC CPU to Motion CPU by the dedicated
instruction
3.1 Automatic Refresh Function of The Shared CPU Memory
(1) Automatic refresh function of the shared CPU memory
(a) The automatic refresh function of the shared CPU memory is executed
automatically the data transfer between CPUs in the Multiple CPU system
during END processing in the PLC CPU or during main cycle processing
(free time except motion control) in the Motion CPU.
during END processing in the PLC CPU or during main cycle processing
(free time except motion control) in the Motion CPU.
When the automatic refresh function is used, the data in the device memory
of the other CPU is read automatically, so the device data of other CPU can
be used as the device data of self CPU.
The diagram below illustrates the automatic refresh operation involving 32
points (B0 to B1F) for the PLC CPU of CPU No.1 and 32 points (B20 to
B3F) for the Motion CPU of CPU No.2.
