Duty Cycle

The duty cycle is the time on divided by the total time, and is
essentially the percent of time that the I/O channel is active
(maximum power consumption).

Duty Cycle = Active time

÷ (Active time + Inactive time)

For example, if a Discrete Input is active for 15 seconds out of every 60
seconds:

Duty Cycle = 15 seconds

÷ (15 seconds + 45 seconds) = 15 seconds ÷ 60 seconds = 0.25
