Figure 5.4 shows a memory access rung with multiple branches. This
rung lists the remote nodes which have access to write into specific blocks
of data table, as follows:
Node 020 can access Words 070-076.
Node 017 can access Words 063-065 and Word 022.
Node 010 can access Words 060-064.
As shown in Figure 5.4, you can identify a particular remote node in more
than one memory access branch. Also, you can assign two or more nodes
to have access to the same block of words.
For practical reasons, do not exceed the display area of the programming
terminal when entering these rungs. More than one memory access rung
can be programmed if needed. Should you require multiple memory
access rungs, you can enter them in any order in the communication zone.
Grouping memory access rungs together promotes ease of programming.
