    Required tools and equipment. Description of the Remote I/O The Remote I/O communications module is an optional interface designed to provide a direct, digital link between an Allen-Bradley Communications Modules programmable controller and any one Allen-Bradley SCANport product. A module is required for each product that you want to connect to Remote I/O.

    Chapter Using Block Transfer Messages Chapter Objectives Chapter 5 provides information about Block Transfer messages. In this chapter, you will read about the following: • General information on block transfers. • The Remote I/O status word. • Data storage. • Example ladder logic programs using Block Transfer messages.

  • Page 55: Understanding The Block Transfer Status Word

    5–2 Using Block Transfer Messages Understanding the Block The block transfer status word is returned from the Remote I/O Transfer Status Word module. It is the first word associated with the rack in the controller input image table. This status word indicates the condition of the Remote I/O module itself and is not part of the standard block transfer instructions in the ladder program.

  • Page 56: Understanding Data Storage

    Using Block Transfer Messages 5–3 Understanding Data Storage In order to use the block transfer instructions in the ladder program, it is necessary to reserve several words for data storage. Some of these words are required for internal use by the block transfer function, and some contain the block transfer message information.
