Discrete Data Transfer
The time that it takes to scan extended-local I/O chassis is added to the
housekeeping time as shown in the following figure.

Data exchange occurs during housekeeping. Outputs are written to
and inputs read from the I/O image table during the logic scan.
IIN and IOT data transfer directly to and
from I/O modules extended-local I/O chassis.
The processors scan the extended-local I/O chassis during the
housekeeping portion of the program scan. Extended-local I/O
discrete data is exchanged between the processor’s data table
image and the I/O in the extended-local I/O chassis.
