Publication 1771Ć6.5.30 - November 1998

The output module is capable of transferring up to 13 words in one
program scan. The number of words transferred is determined by the
block length entered in the output image table control byte.

The bits in the output image table control byte (Bits 00-05) must be
programmed to specify a binary value equal to the number of words
to be transferred.

For example, Figure B.2 shows if your output module is set up to
transfer five words, you would set Bits 00 and 02 of the lower output
image table control byte. The binary equivalent of five words, as
stated in the look-up table, is 000101.
