General Architecture
In order to achieve the throughput and jitter requirements required in the applications the interface is designed for, sercos III operates primarily in a Master/Slave arrangement exchanging cyclic data between nodes. The Master initiates all data transmission during a sercos real-time cycle. All data transmissions begin and end at the Master (circular).

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or architecture:
“Surely one of the peculiar habits of circumstances is the way they follow, in their eternal recurrence, a single course. If an event happens once in a life, it may be depended upon to repeat later its general design.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
“In short, the building becomes a theatrical demonstration of its functional ideal. In this romanticism, High-Tech architecture is, of course, no different in spirit—if totally different in form—from all the romantic architecture of the past.”
—Dan Cruickshank (b. 1949)
