Minimum I/O Update Rates for Bumpless Operation in an MRP
Ring Topology
If your application requires the PROFINET IO to operate in a bumpless fashion (i.e., experience no
Loss of Device
faults and no defaulting of IO) whenever a break in the ring occurs, then the IO Update
Rates of all the devices in that ring must be no smaller than the Minimum IO Update Rate described
in this table.
When no third-party items participate in the ring:

If any third-party items participate in the ring, the minimum I/O Update Rate is the larger of the following two options,
regardless of which ports are used for the ring:
•
The smallest I/O Update Rate
selectable within PME that is more than 1/2 of the largest worst-case ring recovery
time among the third-party items. For example, if the manufacturer states that the worst-case ring recovery time is
96ms, the rate needs to be more than 96ms divided by 2, which is 48ms. The next available rate above 48ms is
64ms.
•
16ms I/O Update Rate
. When using an I/O Update Rate of 16ms, set the
Default Test Interval
to 10ms and the
Test
Monitoring Count
to 2 on the Media Redundancy Manager.
