5. Operating System Overview
Self-diagnosis:
Checks the proper operation of the T1/T1S itself. If an error has detected and cannot be
recovered by re-tries, the T1/T1S moves into ERROR mode. For the self-diagnosis
items, refer to section 10.2.
Mode control:
Checks the mode control switch status and the mode control request commands from
the programming tool.
The scan mode
-
floating scan or fixed-time scan
-
is also controlled hear.
Program check:
At the beginning of the RUN mode, the user program is compiled and its validity is
checked.
I/O update:
Reads the external input signals into the external input devices/registers (X/XW), and
sends the data of the external output devices/registers (Y/YW) to the external output
circuits. Then the outputs (relays, etc.) changes the states and latches until the next I/O
update timing.
The states of the forced input devices are not updated by this operation.
Timer update:
Updates the timer registers which are activated in the user program, and the timing
devices (S040 to S047).
NOTE
The floating scan:
When one scan is finished, immediately starts the next scan. The scan time is
shortest, but may vary depending on the program execution status.
The fixed-time scan:
The scan operation is started every user-specified time. The time setting range
is 10 to 200 ms (10 ms units). If an actual scan needs longer time than the
setting time, it works as the floating scan.
