Reading Status Data from the Module

The MVI56-PDPS module returns a 20-word Status Data block that can be used
to determine the module's operating status. This data can be located in the
module's database at registers at the location specified in the configuration. This
data is transferred to the ControlLogix processor continuously with each read
block.
