PLC5 Family Processor
Block transfer instructions with the PLC-5 processor use a control
file and a data file. The block transfer control file contains the data
table section for module location, the address of the block transfer
data file and other related data. The block transfer data file stores
data that you want transferred to the module (when programming a
BTW) or from the module (when programming a BTR).
The programming terminal prompts you to create a control file when
a block transfer instruction is being programmed. A different block
transfer control file is used for the read and write instructions
for your module.

The CFM module is located in rack 0, I/O group 2, slot 1. The integer
control file starts at N22:200, is 5 words long and is
compatible with all PLC5 family members. The data obtained by the PLC5 processor from the CFM module is placed in
memory starting at N22:101, and with the default length of 0, is 41 words long. The length can be any number between 0
and 41. In enhanced PLC5 processors
➀
, the block transfer data type may be used as a control file.

The
CFM module is located in rack 0, group 2, slot 1. The integer control file starts at N22:205, is a 5 words long and is compat 
ible will all PLC5 family members. The data sent by the PLC5 processor to the CFM module starts at N22:1, and with the
default length of 0, is 60 words long. Valid BTW lengths: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 14, 24, 34, 44, 48, 52, 56 and 60.
