Using Immediate Data-Transfer Operations
ControlNet Immediate Data I/O transfers—Immediate Data Input
(IDI) and Immediate Data Output (IDO)—perform similarly to the
Remote-I/O supported immediate I/O transfers—Immediate Input
(IIN) and Immediate Output (IOT)—which the ControlNet system
also supports. The logic scan is temporarily interrupted while the
most recent state of up to 64 words is read from or written to the
private memory buffer.
