Data
1
Server/Client Number for data to transmit. If the word contains a value
of -1, no transmit data is present. If the word contains a value from 0 to
maximum number of servers -1, the block contains data to send from
the specified server in the module. If the word contains a value from 10
to 14, then the block contains data to send from one of the clients.

Number of characters to transmit to a server or client. Each block can
transmit up to 400 bytes of data. If this word contains a value of -1, the
block contains 400 bytes of data and more blocks of data are to follow.
When the module received the last block containing a positive value
representing the number of bytes in the block, the server or client will
transmit the data to the end device.
