Programming BlockĆTransfers
Once you have configured the blockĆtransfer requests, you must
create logic that sets up and initiates the blockĆtransfers. Your
application program must:
D specify the location of the module receiving the blockĆtransfer
request (the target I/O module)
D specify a read or write operation
D specify the length of a blockĆtransfer
D specify the update interval of the blockĆtransfer, either continuous
or nonĆcontinuous
D initiate the blockĆtransfer request to the target I/O module
D write data to or read data from the blockĆtransfer data registers
according to the application's need
D monitor the status bits
See the following sections for detailed information and Appendix D,
Register Assignment Map" for the complete blockĆtransfer status,
control, and data table listing.
