8 Introducing HSL
The time-deterministic characteristic of an HSL system is an
important factor when implementing a DAQ application. With
an HSL system, all I/O data are refreshed in time-deterministic.
The sampling rate (or scan rate) is linearly dependent on the
number of slave indexed occupied, ranging from 91 µs (less
than three slave indexes) to 1.911 ms (63 slave indexes) under
6 Mbps. These two features go with HSL’s remote capability to
make it suitable for remote DAQ applications, especially when
time-deterministic is of utmost concern.
