13 SPM
13.1
General information
The memory accessible to the user is the SPM (Scratch Pad Memory). This memory is used
to store lots of internal data from which weights, statuses and reports can be read and
control data can be written.
The SPM table can be accessed via OPC or ModBus communication. In addition,
individual bits are copied back and forth between digital inputs and outputs and the SPM
via the I/O configuration.
13.2 Elementary data types
The elementary data types are characterized by their bit width and possible value range.
All commands of the BOOL data type are executed with a rising edge.
