Transmission time of the analogue values
The transmission time of the analogue values depends on the conver-
sion time of the analogue signals into digital signals in the AS-i modu-
le and on the transmission time via the AS-Interface.
Example: Transmission time of 2 analogue channels
The conversion time for 2 analogue input signals into digital signals is
120ms. The transmission time of the 2 16-bit values via the AS-inter-
face ideally is 7 AS-i cycles per value. For a cycle time of 5ms per AS-i
cycle this results in a transmission time of 2 x 7 x 5ms = 70ms via the
AS-Interface.
Thus the total transmission time for 2 analogue values ideally is 120ms
(conversion time) + 70ms (transmission time) = 190ms.
Example: Transmission time of 4 analogue channels
The conversion time for 4 analogue input signals into digital signals is
240ms. The transmission time of the 4 16-bit values via the AS-inter-
face ideally is 7 AS-i cycles per value. For a cycle time of 5ms per AS-i
cycle this results in a transmission time of 4 x 7 x 5ms = 140ms via the
AS-Interface.
Thus the total transmission time for 4 analogue values ideally is 240ms
(conversion time) + 140ms (transmission time) = 380ms.
