Sending Data from an Option Module to the Host
To send data to the host CPU, the option module must place that data into the %I or
%AI memory area of the Remote I/O Scanner. The data must be located within the
range of %I or %AI memory configured for transfer to the host, and cannot correspond
to an input module. It must correspond to a gap in the input portion of the remote
drop I/O map.
