Fieldbus communication
Inputs/Outputs
The digital input and output signals from the burner
control unit BCU are included in this module.
Input bytes (BCU
➔
PLC)
The input bytes describe the digital signals which are
transferred from the BCU to the digital inputs of the
PLC. The digital signals take up 3 bytes (24 bits).

Output bytes (PLC
➔
BCU)
The output bytes describe the digital signals which
are output by the PLC to the BCU. The digital signals
to control the burner control unit BCU occupy 2 bytes
(16 bits).
Terminals 1 to 41 (dependent on parameters I061 to
I074) can be wired parallel to the bus communication.
This allows the BCU to be controlled using the digital
signals of the bus communication or the inputs at the
terminals.
