3.0 REMOTE I/O NETWORK

COMMUNICATIONS

(RERIO)

Loading the Remote I/O software (RERIO) onto the PC Link module

allows it to monitor all drops on a remote I/O network, accessing the

output data being sent from the Master to the Slave drops as well as

the input data being sent from the Slave drops back to the Master.

The PC Link module may also be configured as an active drop which

will receive output data from the Master and send input data back to

the Master. The PC Link module can act as any valid drop and can

have any valid drop depth.

RERIO Memory Organization

The RERIO memory is a 16K block starting at offset 0 in the installed

segment. Although 16k is available, not all of it is used. Any

references to card memory in this appendix assume the installed

segment address. The memory organization of the PC Link module

running the RERIO software is summarized in Table 3.
