Description
The National Instruments cRIO-9148 CompactRIO Chassis, with Part Number 781502-01, is designed to provide flexible I/O Scan Times, which are dependent on the type and number of C Series Modules used. Utilizing scanned access mode for I/O operations is significantly faster compared to direct access mode, though the latter permits asynchronous access to I/O channels, offering flexibility in data handling.
When it comes to optimizing system performance, it is important to note that the configured publishing of data can greatly impact CPU overhead, making it a critical factor for efficient application design. In Active Scan Engine mode, the system establishes a connection with the DeviceNet interface device, enabling communication and data transfer to DeviceNet slave devices. Conversely, switching to Configuration Scan Engine mode results in the disconnection of the DeviceNet interface device from the network, ceasing all network communication.
