There has been some discussion within the IEC 61499 Maintenance Team of the appropriate behavior of
E_CYCLE blocks when doing programmatic updates of the cycle period (
DT input) while the block is running. The
events/E_CYCLE documentation on the
FBNavigator site explains how this is done in the
FBDK, and a new
test/E_CYCLE_DEMO system configuration is included in today's FBDK self-update with documentation on the FBNavigator site showing you how to use an
E_DELAY block to obtain the correct
STOP/START event sequencing for this purpose.
