Installing and Wiring the DSM314

The absolute limits for each host controller type must not be exceeded because in some
cases they are based on I/O Table and Configuration data capacity.
The practical number of axes must consider I/O use and sweep time of the entire system.

The maximum number of modules supported in a system may be reduced by other
modules in the system, such as APM and GBC modules. It may also be further reduced
by having datagrams set up that read the reference or fault tables. If the configuration
and user program is stored at the same time, the presence of either C blocks within
