feat: Enhance PLC status reporting with actual CPU cycle time
- Updated PLCClient to retrieve and report actual CPU cycle time using SZL methods. - Renamed `cycle_time_ms` to `comm_time_ms` to clarify that it represents communication latency. - Added detailed cycle time statistics (current, min, max) to the PLC status response. - Modified Dashboard component to display new cycle time information alongside communication time. - Documented the new implementation and troubleshooting steps for SZL access in the CPU Cycle Time Implementation Guide.

# CPU Cycle Time Implementation Guide
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem Identified
|
||||
|
||||
The previous implementation was showing **communication latency** instead of actual **CPU cycle time**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Snap7's `get_exec_time()`** → Returns communication time (ping-like latency)
|
||||
- **Actual CPU cycle time** → PLC internal scan cycle time (what Simatic Manager shows)
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Implementation (UPDATED)
|
||||
|
||||
### Dashboard Display
|
||||
- **📡 Comm**: Communication latency from Snap7 `get_exec_time()` (ms)
|
||||
- **⏱️ Current**: Current CPU cycle time via SZL (ms)
|
||||
- **📊 Min/Max**: Minimum and Maximum cycle times via SZL (ms)
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Changes
|
||||
- `comm_time_ms`: Communication latency (renamed from `cycle_time_ms`)
|
||||
- `cycle_time`: Object containing SZL-based cycle time statistics:
|
||||
- `current_ms`: Current cycle time
|
||||
- `min_ms`: Minimum recorded cycle time
|
||||
- `max_ms`: Maximum recorded cycle time
|
||||
- `method`: SZL method used (e.g., "SZL_0x0132_0x0004")
|
||||
|
||||
## SZL (System Status List) Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Method: SZL-Based Reading ✅
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def _read_actual_cpu_cycle_time(self) -> Optional[Dict[str, Any]]:
|
||||
"""Read CPU cycle time using SZL (System Status List)"""
|
||||
try:
|
||||
# SZL ID 0x0132, Index 0x0004 - Basic cycle time information
|
||||
szl_data = self.plc.read_szl(0x0132, 0x0004)
|
||||
|
||||
if szl_data and len(szl_data) >= 16:
|
||||
import struct
|
||||
|
||||
# Parse SZL data structure:
|
||||
# Bytes 0-3: Current cycle time (microseconds)
|
||||
# Bytes 4-7: Minimum cycle time (microseconds)
|
||||
# Bytes 8-11: Maximum cycle time (microseconds)
|
||||
current_us = struct.unpack(">I", szl_data[0:4])[0]
|
||||
min_us = struct.unpack(">I", szl_data[4:8])[0]
|
||||
max_us = struct.unpack(">I", szl_data[8:12])[0]
|
||||
|
||||
return {
|
||||
"current_ms": current_us / 1000.0,
|
||||
"min_ms": min_us / 1000.0,
|
||||
"max_ms": max_us / 1000.0,
|
||||
"method": "SZL_0x0132_0x0004"
|
||||
}
|
||||
except:
|
||||
# Fallback to alternative SZL index
|
||||
szl_data = self.plc.read_szl(0x0132, 0x000C)
|
||||
# ... similar parsing
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### SZL Benefits
|
||||
- **Universal**: Works with most S7-300/400 PLCs
|
||||
- **No PLC program modification required**
|
||||
- **Comprehensive data**: Min/Current/Max cycle times
|
||||
- **Real-time**: Direct from CPU diagnostics
|
||||
|
||||
## Display Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend Display
|
||||
```
|
||||
🖥️ CPU Status: RUN (25.4ms)
|
||||
📡 Comm: 27ms
|
||||
⏱️ Current: 25.4ms
|
||||
📊 Min: 12.3ms | Max: 45.2ms
|
||||
📟 CPU 315F-2 PN/DP
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### API Response
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"status": {
|
||||
"connected": true,
|
||||
"state": "RUN",
|
||||
"comm_time_ms": 27,
|
||||
"cycle_time": {
|
||||
"current_ms": 25.4,
|
||||
"min_ms": 12.3,
|
||||
"max_ms": 45.2,
|
||||
"method": "SZL_0x0132_0x0004"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"cpu_info": { ... }
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Common SZL Issues
|
||||
1. **Access denied**: Some PLCs require specific access rights
|
||||
2. **Different data format**: CPU model variations in SZL structure
|
||||
3. **Unsupported SZL**: Older PLCs may not support these SZL IDs
|
||||
|
||||
### Alternative SZL Indices
|
||||
- `0x0132, 0x0004`: Basic cycle time information
|
||||
- `0x0132, 0x000C`: 32-bit execution time meter
|
||||
- `0x013C, 0x0000`: Cycle time monitoring (some models)
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Testing
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import snap7
|
||||
client = snap7.client.Client()
|
||||
client.connect('10.1.33.11', 0, 2)
|
||||
|
||||
# Test SZL access
|
||||
try:
|
||||
data = client.read_szl(0x0132, 0x0004)
|
||||
print(f"SZL data length: {len(data)} bytes")
|
||||
print(f"Raw data: {data.hex()}")
|
||||
except Exception as e:
|
||||
print(f"SZL error: {e}")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration from Old Method
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Communication Time Only)
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"cycle_time_ms": 27 // This was communication time!
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (Comprehensive Cycle Data)
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"comm_time_ms": 27, // Communication latency
|
||||
"cycle_time": { // Real CPU cycle times
|
||||
"current_ms": 25.4,
|
||||
"min_ms": 12.3,
|
||||
"max_ms": 45.2
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- **Communication Time**: Network latency (5-50ms typical)
|
||||
- **CPU Cycle Time**: Internal scan time (10-100ms typical for S7-315)
|
||||
- **SZL Method**: Standardized Siemens diagnostic interface
|
||||
- **Real-time**: Updates with each status request
