Understanding the I/O Image
Regardless of the Datalink combination, x1 will always contain the LSW
and x2 will always contain the MSW. In the following examples,
parameter 242 - [Power Up Marker] in a PowerFlex 70 drive contains a
value of 88.4541 hours.
The following example shows an unlike Datalink pair of A2 and B1.
With A1 already assigned, the next two available Datalinks were used.
32-bit data is stored in binary as follows:
Example: Parameter 242 - [Power Up Marker] = 88.4541 hours
