Note: See Section 11.4.5 for further explanation of scan-list node status indication areas and module status indication
areas. The input and output mentioned here are defined in the perspective of the master of the entire fieldbus system.
When AS01DNET works in slave mode, the input and output mapping areas for AS01DNET at different positions
of the right of AS PLC are listed in the following table.

11.4.4 Bit-strobe Command
11.4.4.1. Bit-strobe Work Principle
Bit strobe is one of the standard DeviceNet I/O transmission methods. The command length is fixed to 8 bytes, i.e. 64
bits. (Maximum 64 stations exist in a DeviceNet network.) One bit corresponds to one node. The following table takes
the first AS01DNET on the right of AS PLC for example.

Corresponding network node
Node 47 Node 46 Node 45 … … Node 33 Node 32
Node 63 Node 62 Node 61 … … Node 49 Node 48
When the value of bit0 of D26100 is 0, node 0 is selected and need return data to the master.
When the values of bit0 and bit1 of D26100 are both 0, node 0 and node 1 are selected and they need return data to the
master.

In the bit-strobe method, the master does not send control data to the slave node. However, the slave node need return
I/O data to the master if the corresponding bit is set to 0. If the corresponding bit is set to 1, the slave node does not need
to return I/O data to the master.
