The first word of the DCM I/O image is the status word. The status word
indicates the status of communication and data between the RIO scanner and
the DCM. Depending on what logical rack size the DCM is configured for, it
will transfer the following number of I/O words:
Rack Size
Number of RIO Words Transferred
Total Words
1/4 Logical Rack
One (plus one Status Word)
2
1/2 Logical Rack
Three (plus one Status Word)
4
3/4 Logical Rack
Five (plus one Status Word)
6
Full Logical Rack
Seven (plus one Status Word)
8
The figure below shows how I/O bits are transferred from the scanner to two
DCMs, each configured as a 1/2 logical rack device.

RIO Scanner Input Status Word Examination (Decimal)
This is the input status word sent in a data transfer from a supervisory
processor/RIO scanner to a DCM. These bits can be used as conditional
logic in your SLC program to flag DCM, RIO, or supervisory processor
system errors and/or status. Scanner status bits not defined below are
reserved for future use.
DCM Initialization bit. This bit is set when the DCM is in its power-up initialization.
It will be cleared when valid data is received from the supervisory processor output
image table.

other bit is set. It is cleared when all other bits are cleared.

error. It is cleared when the Communication error is cleared.
