Channel Update Rate

The module’s channel update rate is determined by the filter frequency
selection. A lower filter frequency takes longer to update each channel.
The following table shows the single channel update rate and 32 channel
update rate for each filter frequency.

+ Note: Channel update time is the time required for the module to acquire an input sign and update

the module’s data registers. The scan rate of the Quantum system will vary with application
ladder and system configuration.

+ Note: Periodic system calibration will also effect channel update times for one scan cycle.

System Resolution and Accuracy

The system resolution listed below is the smallest input signal change that
the ADC can detect. The resolution level is affected by the filter fre-
quency selected.

The resolution levels for the voltage mode and current mode apply to the
full scale input ranges.

System accuracy is the total error between an actual input signal level
and the module output data value. System accuracy is effected by
external wiring, signal noise, filter frequency, calibration, temperature, and
output data formats. The table below lists that system accuracy verses
temperature for a 10hz filter with periodic calibration enabled.
