Throughput Introduction

RIO throughput is defined as the time between when an input event
occurs at an I/O module in an RIO chassis to when an output event
occurs at an I/O module within the same RIO chassis. There are three
types of throughput concerning the 1747-SN Series B Scanner and its
RIO network:

• discrete throughput (time from discretely mapped input to

discretely mapped output) without block transfers (BTs) present

• discrete throughput (time from discretely mapped input to

discretely mapped output) with BTs present

• BT throughput (time from when a BT is enabled to when the BT

successfully completes)

RIO Network Throughput Components

The following components affect RIO network throughput:

• the total SLC processor scan time
• the total RIO link scan time
• adapter(s) backplane scan time(s)
• the scanner’s output delay time
• the scanner’s input delay time
• input module delay times
• output module delay times
