I am using a Quantum PLC as a Master to read and write to a Momentum PLC as a single Slave.
Am using the XXMIT block in my Concept V2.6 program code.
The Quantum READS 30 Holding Regisers from the Momentum.
The Quantum WRITES to 3 Holding Registers of the Momentum.
It's working fine except I am not getting responses from the Momentum as fast as I would like.
Could someone help me with some time settings explanations to do with Modbus, the XXMIT block and PLC scan times?
The Quantum (Master) Scan time is : 235 ms
The Momentum (Slave) Scan time is : 27 ms
Momentum Modus Port Delay Time Setting: 230 ms
XXMIT block time settings on the Quantum:
RespTout: 500 ms
StartDly: 10 ms
EndDly: 10 ms
