Understanding Remote
Input and Output Image
Files

The SLC system allows you to assign up to 32 words of input and
output image data to a scanner. This allows your scanner to access a
maximum of four full logical racks (512 input and output points) of
data from remote devices.

The illustration on page 5-2 shows how logical racks, logical groups,
and words are allocated within the I/O image files. Note that this
illustration describes the input image file. The scanner’s output image
file is the same, except that its addressing scheme starts with O:e.O
and ends with O:e.31.
