First Data Item

When transferring only one item, the specific item (of the type specified
by word 0 of the data file) is specified in word 1 of the data file. When
transferring multiple user variables or cam table points in a single block
transfer, the first (lowest numbered) item is specified in word 1, as shown
in the table below. Put the appropriate value from the table in word 1 of
the BTW data file.

When more than one user variable or cam table value is sent to or gotten
from the motion controller in a single block transfer, word 1 of the BTW
data file specifies the first item to be transferred. See Number and Format
of Items
for more information on specifying the number of items.

For example, to send a position value for axis 2 from the PLC to point 100
in the master cam table in the motion controller:

1. Put 7B23 in word 0 of the BTW data file.
