SIMATIC S7-1200/S7-1500 and SIMOTION: Acyclic Data Exchange
The standard libraries LAcycCom for SIMATIC S7-1200/S7-1500 and
LDPV1 for SIMOTION provide a collision-free coordination
of communication resources in the CPU for acyclic data exchange
via DPV1 services.
Therefore the corresponding functions in these libraries
have to be used in the application instead of the existing system
functions for the communication with external devices.
