13 SPM
13.1 General information
The memory accessible to the user is the SPM (Scratch Pad Memory). This memory is used
to store lots of internal data from which weights, statuses and reports can be read and
control data can be written.
- System data are dened by the rmware and the respective application.
- The free user range can be used freely by conguring the logical links, for example.
The SPM table can be accessed via OPC, eldbus and ModBus communication. In
addition, individual bits are copied back and forth between digital inputs and outputs and
the SPM via the I/O conguration.
13.2 Elementary data types
The elementary data types are characterized by their bit width and possible value range.
