In a CODESYS project, each input and output has a physical address according to the IEC standard
(e.g. %IW5). CODESYS offers the following options to access this address from a PLC application and
thereby to access the input and outputs data of the device:
Direct access to IEC address
Access to IEC address via AT declaration
Definition of an ALIAS for an IEC address
Link a program variable to an IEC address (mapping)
