The following figure describes the format and mapping of transaction
blocks for request and response messages in the scanner module:
How the Processor and Scanner Module Manage Messages
Block transfer operations between the processor and the scanner
always originate in the processor. The scanner module can only wait
for the processor to download a transaction block to the module or
request an upload of a transaction block from the module.
Once an Explicit Message Request transaction block is downloaded to
the scanner module, a ladder logic program in the processor polls the
scanner module for the transaction block containing the Explicit
Message Response for that request. This is done by the processor with
a Block Transfer Read on the scanner module.
