(b) Extended service mode (MODE E)
This is the area that stores the input data from the slave station.
In this area, the data length (in byte units) for each station is assigned in
variable length according to the parameter file set in the GX Configrator-DP.
The data length can be set in the range of 0 to 244 bytes.
Number of stations that can be set will vary in the range of 1 to 60,
depending on the specified data length. For example, seven stations can be
set if the data length for each station is 244 bytes, and 60 stations if the data
length is 32 bytes.
Example : When the input data length for the first station is set to 23 bytes
and that for the second station to 7 bytes
