An Immediate Output Update instruction interrupts the program scan to
update the module group with data from corresponding output image table
word address (Figure 10.4). The image table is updated before the normal
I/O scan and executed each program scan when the rung is true. It can be
programmed unconditionally. This instruction immediately transfers
output data from the selected 16-bit word in the output image table without
waiting for the normal I/O scan.
