Main difference between DCS and PLC is about the scanning
time. PLC's have a fixed scanning time whereas DCS
execuation order(scanning) can be varied with certain
minimum limit. Generally a PLC can have a scan rate of as
low as 5msec(fixed) to some where around 20msec(fixed). As
DCS handles larger number of inputs/outputs its scanning
rate is 50msec and this value needs to be defined (can be
kept more than 50msec) while writing a program. But latest
DCS can have scanning rate of 20msec.
