Datalinks are a SCANport mechanism for transferring additional
information between a programmable controller and a SCANport
device. Each datalink switch on the adapter reserves two words of
the programmable controller I/O image table. The 1305, 1336
PLUS, and 1336 FORCE drives support this mechanism. For
additional details, refer to Chapter 3, Configuration and Interfacing.
