Another important concept to understand is the direction of data transfer for the
different data types with reference to the controller. The following illustration
shows the data types (monitored data) that are transferred from the processor to
the module. This monitor data can be read on the IEC-870-5-104 network.
The next diagram shows the movement of control data from the module to the
processor.
As blocks are transferred between the module and the processor, each block
contains block identification codes that define the content or function of the block
of data transferred. The control blocks used by the module are displayed in the
following table.
