•
This area is used while in the extended
service mode (MODE switch: No. E) only.
When in the normal service mode (MODE
switch: No. 0), 0 is stored in all areas.
•
Data is set in this area during module startup
according to the parameters stored in the
master station.
•
The start address is set in 1 word units for
both input and output. The data range is from
0 to 1919 (0 to 77Fh).
•
The start addresses are stored in the INPUT
area, starting from the head.
•
When nothing is assigned, -1 (FFFFh) will be
set.
Example: When the input byte length and
output byte length for the first station
are 3 bytes and 5 bytes, and those
for the second station are 7 bytes
and 3 bytes, respectively:
Address 2128 : 0 (0h)
Address 2129 : 2 (2h)
Address 2188 : 960 (3C0h)
Address 2189 : 963 (3C3h)
