WHEN COMMUNICATING DATA USING THE MC PROTOCOL9
9 - 13
(2) Data communication using binary code
(a) When reading to or writing from the bit device memory
The bit device memory can be read and written in bit units (one device point)
or word units (16 device points).
How data is transmitted in each case is explained below.
1) Bit units (one point)
In case of bit units, four bits designate one point and the bit device
memory is handled from the designated head device for the number of
designated device points sequentially from the left. They are expressed
as "1" if the device is ON or "0" if the device is OFF.
(Example)
Indicating the ON/OFF status of five points from M10
2) Word units (16 points)
In case of word units, one bit designates one point and the bit device
memory is handled from the designated head device for the number of
designated device points sequentially from the left. They are expressed
in 16-point units in the order, low byte (L: bits 0 to 7) to high byte (H: bits
8 to 15).
(Example)
Indicating the ON/OFF status of 32 points from M16
