Defining the I/O update/trigger task for the SliceBus controller and I/Os

The interval at which variables are updated from the running controller can be configured by selecting update tasks. Depending on the controller used, different settings concerning update tasks may be possible.

For iC9200 Series controller types, the following applies:

In the 'Settings' editor of the 'SliceBus' PLANT node, you can define the task (cyclic or idle) with which

the SliceBus system variables (SliceBus / SB_*) and the assigned global input/output variables are updated.
the I/Os of the connected SliceBus I/O devices are updated (that is, when the global input/output variables connected to the process data items are read/written).

Note
If no task is selected here, the update is done in an interval of 50 ms.

Double-click the 'SliceBus' node in the PLANT and open the 'Settings' editor in the editors area.
In the 'Settings' editor, select the 'All' or 'Update task'/'Trigger task' category on the left.
Select the desired task for each type. The drop-down lists provide all cyclic and idle tasks that are defined in the 'Tasks and Events' editor.
