All data transferred from the PLC to the BASIC module must be routed
through the BASIC module input buffer. The block transfer write buffer
(BTW) is part of the input buffer. This table lists the defined offsets of the
BASIC module input buffer. These offset numbers are used by the various
calls that manipulate the BTW buffer or the DH-485 common interface
file.

(BTR) is part of the output buffer. This table lists the defined offsets of the
