Program Data Organisation
A 2400

series controller can contain multiple “programs”, each consisting of up to 16 segments. The data for each program
starts at the base tag address given by the following table:

The parameters used to describe a program are organised into 17 blocks, each of 8 words in length, starting at the base
address for the program. There is one block for general program data, such as the units to be used for ramp and dwell times,
and 16 further blocks for the segment data itself. To obtain the tag address of the data block for a given program, add the
block offset given in the next table to the program
