Message Transmission Time

Thetimerequired for a messageto betransmitted is:
Time(in milliseconds) = 198,000/Baud Rate
The module requires less than 1 millisecond to receive the message

and storeit in dual port memory.

Restrictions

This section describes limitations and restrictions on the use of this

module.

4.5.1

Remote Racks

This moduleshould not beused in a remoterack.

4.5.2

Reading Toledo Scale Data

Registers 65Ć72 should not be read without first performing a

request update" via register 64.

4.5.3

Writing Data to Registers

This module contains registers that are read only. Attempts to write to

them will cause a bus error (severe system error). The following are

examples from programs that writeto themoduleand should

therefore be avoided if they involve readĆonly registers:
a. Referencing the module from the coil in a ladder logic task.
b. Referencing the module on the left side of an equal sign in a LET

statement in a control block or BASIC task.

c. Referencing the module as an output in a control block function.
