When this bit is set:

It indicates that the adapterĆmode processor:

detected a communication failure or received a reset command from the supervisory processor

11

9

received a reset command from the supervisory processor (processor in program or test mode)

13

11

detected that the supervisory processor is powering up; this bit is reset with the first

communication from the supervisory processor

detected a communication failure (e.g., no communication activity on the remote I/O

communication link within the last 100ms)

To transfer blocks of data between a PLC-5/12, -5/15, or -5/25
adapter-mode processor and a supervisory processor, the adapter-mode
processor must have a BTW to respond to the BTR from the supervisory
processor (and a BTR to respond to the supervisory processor’s BTW).
For example, when the supervisory processor enables a BTR instruction,
the adapter-mode processor responds by enabling a BTW instruction.
The supervisory processor controls the transfer; the adapter-mode
processor responds to the request. Figure 8.4 shows an example of
block-transfer programming between an adapter-mode processor and a
supervisory processor.
