The following illustration shows the data transfer method used to move data
between the CompactLogix processor, the MVI69-GSC module and the network.
All data transferred between the module and the processor over the backplane is
through the input and output images. Ladder logic must be written in the
CompactLogix processor to interface the input and output image data with data
defined in the Controller Tags. All data used by the module is stored in its internal
database. The following illustration shows the layout of the database:
