Summary

In this chapter, we further investigated the project organizational units we have been using throughout this book. We detailed the way a Logix controller executes tasks and how the CPU divides its time based on priority. We introduced the overhead time slice and emphasized its importance when optimizing a Logix application. Finally, we investigated methods within the Logix platform to monitor and troubleshoot performance issues.

In the next chapter, we will dig deeper into troubleshooting controller issues and faults.
