The part number for a module is defined by the keyword Part= and can be from 1 to 15
characters long. The part number text must be enclosed in double quotes, for example
Part="IC660BBD024".

The description for a module is defined by the keyword Desc= and can be from 1 to 95
characters long. The description text must be enclosed in double quotes, for example
Desc="12/24VDC 32 Ckt Source I/O Block".

The part number and description are used for comments only. You can put whatever you
want in them.

Each definition ends with the keyword EndBlock, which is required.

part numbers and descriptions from its internal module database.

Global Data Sent by AN-X2-GENI

If the AN-X2-GENI is to send global data on the Genius network, add a line of the form

GlobSend=length

to the configuration file. The length can be from 1 to 64. The length of global data is in
16-bit words, not bytes.
