Further datais are given fn Section 2.3. ‘The CC-Link IE Controller Network can use the cyclic and transient transmissions simultaneously. This course features the cyclic transmission, which is the main transmission method used in the CC-Link IE Controller Network Data Communication by Cyclic Transmission Periodic data communication In cyclic transmissions, programmable controllers send their own data sequentially within a given interval. This data is received by other stations which are not transmitting at that time. To ensure complete data exchange, the transmission authority called token pass shifts from one programmable controller fo the next in sequence. Because transmission occurs in a periodic manner, this format is referred to as a “cyclic transmission” format. The one cycle of send authority shifting (token passing) is referred to as a "link scan". Each programmable controller is granted the ‘send authority once in each link scan, and this is referred to as an “on-time” condition, The following example shows the cyclic transmission timing for each station. sata eae cS communication = “eee al al Features of a programmable controller based control network In a cyclic transmission, data transmissions without colision are possible with many network- connected stations and in a high transmission frequency. This is because the stations perform their transmissions in a sequential manner, with only one transmission occurring at a time. For this reason, cyclic transmission, which offers a reliable real-time communication, is suitable for controlling preduction equipment, etc. ‘A function-distributed system, where functions are divided between network-connected CPU modules, offers the following advantages to the individual systems that are controlled by several CPU modules: + Less processing load for each CPU module. + A failure in a single location will have the minimal effect to the others. I PLC_CC-Link_1E Controller Network ENG Data Communication by Cyclic Transmission To perform high-speed cyclic transmissions, link device data is communicated between stations with minimum transmission delay. The link devices of other station's send areas are handled as "own station devices". The animation below shows how cyclic transmissions occur.

(2) Link special relays (SB) and link special registers (SW) Link special relay (SB) and link special registers (SW) both store network statuses. Alink special relay (SB) stores bit signals (ON/OFF), and a link special register (SW) stores data information (16-bit. The data stored in these relays and registers are refreshed between the network modules and the CPU modules, and such data can be used in sequence pragrams to verify network module statuses, ‘and for error detection.

However, sometimes there are instances where I/O status and data value refresh across the network can be delayed due to transmission delays, link refresh timing, etc. In order to counteract these possibilities, the following points should be observed. (@) "SET" and RST" instructions for securing ON/OFF time period If the on/off time period of the link relay, etc., is too shor, the data may not be received by another station due to a transmission delay.
