To facilitate commissioning activities, the macrocycle can be set to
1000… 2000 ms. After all the devices are commissioned and operating and the
strategy is downloaded, the macrocycle can be reduced.
If more unscheduled time is needed, increase the macrocycle. The unused
scheduled time will be used for the unscheduled activities.
1. In the Project window, double-click H1-1 (or whatever you named
the tag for the H1 link).
The Fieldbus window appears.
2. Right-click H1-1 and choose Attributes.
The Fieldbus attributes dialog box appears.
3. Type a macrocycle time (in milliseconds) and click OK.
TIP The new macrocycle time will not take effect until the H1 segment
is downloaded.
