Communicate With
Your Module
I/O messages are sent to (consumed) and received from (produced) the
ArmorPOINT I/O modules. These messages are mapped into the processor’s
memory. This ArmorPOINT I/O input/output module produces 6 or 10
bytes of input data (scanner Rx - status). It consumes 1 byte of I/O data
(scanner Tx). See the 1738 ArmorPOINT adapter User Manual, publication
Default Data Map for the ArmorPOINT Encoder/Counter Module
Message size: 6 or 10 Byte

Note that when a configuration is sent to the module, it is checked for
consistency before being applied. If an error is found in the configuration, the
PE bit is asserted and the module retains its previous configuration. Monitor
this PE bit with your user program to isolate any problems an improperly
configured module may have. If the configuration is considered acceptable, the
counter ASIC is disabled and counting is suspended while the ASIC is loaded
with the new operational parameters.
