10 CONSTANT SCAN
Since the processing time differs as per the execution/non-execution of command used in the program, the scan timer
changes with every scan. By setting the constant scan, because a program can be repeatedly executed while keeping scan
time at a specified amount of time, even when the execution time of the program changes, the I/O refresh interval can be
constant.
• When constant scan is set (Settings value=10 ms)
• When constant scan time is not set
