FLEX I/O Module Input Mapping Scheme Example
FLEX I/O Module Input Bytes
FLEX I/O module node address 22
The bits from each
FLEX I/O module are
mapped into the
communication module’
s
input image table.
1
The input image table is then
transferred to the host
application’s input data file.
Important: The communication
module only makes the data
available for the processor to
read. The communication
module does not move the data
to the processor.
What’s Happening?

The FLEX I/O module produces 6 bytes
of input data and consumes 4 bytes of
output data.
1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte
