Specifications
Several factors are used for evaluating the quality and performance of
programmable controllers when selecting a unit for a particular application.
These are listed below.
This specifies the number of I/O devices that can be connected to the
controller. There should be sufficient I/O ports to meet present requirements
with enough spares to provide for moderate future expansion
Scan Time
This is the speed at which the controller executes the relay-ladder logic
program. This variable is usually specified as the scan time per 1000 logic
nodes and typically ranges from 1 to 200 milliseconds.
