7-16 Communicating with a PLC-5 Adapter Channel
Each group/module that is programmed as an adapter channel block transfer
uses one byte in the adapter channel’s input destination file.
For example:
Use care when planning block-transfer and discrete transfers of data to an
adapter-mode controller channel.

A block transfer request for group 3, module 0

unavailable for discrete data transfer.

ATTENTION
Use caution when performing data transfer. The
discrete output data is over-written by the block
transfer control on a group/module basis. If you write
both types of transfer to the same group slot,
unpredictable machine operation and possible damage
to equipment or injury to personnel can occur.
