Blocks 5101 to 5106: Port 2 Command Control
If the CompactLogix or MicroLogix 1500-LRP processor sends a command control block,
the module places the commands referenced in the block in the command queue.
Commands placed in the queue with this method need not have their enable bit set.
Only valid commands are placed in the queue.
Up to 6 commands can be enabled and placed in the command queue with one write
request from the CompactLogix or MicroLogix 1500-LRP processor.
