Byte, Word, and Double Word Alignment
The following chassis is used to demonstrate how the data is aligned for the
Byte, Word, and Double Word alignment options. This chassis was
intentionally assembled as shown to demonstrate as many use cases as
possible. Discrete and analog modules are intermixed. An ARM module is
used to reserve space for a future device. The 1734-IB4D module in slot 8 is
configured to produce 2 bytes while the IB4D module in slot 7 is configured
to produce 1 byte. The ASCII module in slot 10 is configured to produce
9 bytes.
