7.4.6 The Data Field
The structure of data blocks depends on the type of message. There are three message types and the type applies for both
control messages (master⇒follower) and response messages (follower⇒master).
The three types of message are:
Process block (PCD)
The PCD is made up of a data block of four bytes (two words) and contains:
•
Control word and reference value (from master to follower)
•
Status word and present output frequency (from follower to master)
