Module Status and Input Data
In this chapter you will read about:
reading data from your module
input module read block format
Block transfer read programming moves status and data from the input module
to the processor’s data table in one I/O scan (Table 6.A). The processor user
program initiates the request to transfer data from the input module to the
processor.
During normal operation, the read block transfer for this module moves up to 8
words from the RTD module in one program scan. The words contain module
status and input data from each channel. When a block transfer length of 0 is
programmed, the 1771–IR/B will respond with the Series A default of 8
words.
The user program initiates the request to transfer data from the RTD module to
the processor.
