The remote I/O link can operate at three speeds: 57.6K, 115.2K or 230.4K
bits/s. The selection of link speed is dependent on the scanner/processor
used, throughput requirements, distance required and the type of remote
I/O devices being used.
Throughput Requirements
The throughput, a portion of which is I/O scan time, must be balanced
against the distance requirements for the application. The typical discrete
I/O scan time is shown in Table 3.E below. Use these values along with
your processor/scanner manual to determine system throughput.
