Your PLC processor gets data from the CFM module using BTR
instructions in your ladder logic program. The CFM module
transfers up to 41 words to the PLC processor’s data table file.
The words contain module status and input data from each channel.
You should program a block transfer read length of zero (0). When a
BTR of 0 is programmed, the CFM module will determine the
correct number of words (41) to return.
