Gateway Status Data in Upper Memory

The gateway places useful status data in dedicated upper memory locations in its
internal database. The Data Map functionality of the gateway can be used to map
this data into the normal user data range of the gateway

’s database (registers 0

through 3999). It can be accessed by remote devices, such as HMIs or
processors. See
