Which outcome occurs when a PLC controlling a robotic arm gripper exceeds its scan cycle time, particularly with high-resolution encoder feedback?

💡 Explanation

Gripper accuracy decreases because the PLC's PID control loop utilizes encoder feedback; exceeding scan cycle time causes missed encoder counts and delayed adjustments, using dithering rather than closed-loop control. Therefore positional error is more likely, rather than other parameters shifting.
