4.2.3 Termination of Received Data
When data is received on either of the application ports, you must define in the
configuration when this data will be transferred to the ControlLogix processor.
Within the module, this is known as the termination type for port. When the
termination condition is met, the data will be sent from the port’s receive buffer
(data area of 4096 bytes) to the processor using the input image. This
termination type is set using a bit-mapped value, entered into the
GSC.CONFIG.P
ORT X.T YPE field of the configuration controller tags.
