This block does not contain any data. When the processor places a value of
9998 in word 0 of the output image, the module performs a warm-start. This
involves clearing the configuration and all program status data. Finally, the
program loads the configuration information from the flash disk and begin
running. There is no positive response to this message other than the status data
being set to zero and the block polling starting over. The format of this block is
