Alternate Mode (one channel
at a time) Output File

The alternate mode output file contains the real-time output data from the
module. This table shows the generic module tag definitions on the left. On the
right of the table is the 1769-ASCII module Add-On Profile configuration using
RSLogix 5000 software version 16 and later.

It is assumed that 16 bit words are used. The structure on the left is used with
varying data types; SINT, INT, BOOL and SINT array for data. The Add-On
Profile structures the module output, configuration and input tags differently.
With the Add-On Profile the configuration tags are rearranged as INTs.

The table shows the maximum size of the value and shows the maximum array
size for Alternate Mode.
