In Bit Trigger Run Mode you can:

trigger a message by sending a bit trigger table

return the message number of the message being run to a PLC

place messages on the Historical Events Stack

send messages to the slave address specified as message attribute

Triggering a Message by Sending a Bit Trigger Table

It takes only a single bit (set)

to

trigger a message. The position of a

bit (in the Bit Trigger Table) corresponds to a message number. Bit
00 of WORD 1 corresponds to message number 1; bit 01 of WORD
1 corresponds to message number 2; and so on. The total number of
messages that can be triggered depends on rack size allowed:
