Handling Unit Errors If a communications error occurs while the slave is on standby, the appropri-
ate bit in word A436 will turn ON. The appropriate bit is determined by the
order in which the Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units are connected.
The Unit nearest to the CPU Unit uses A436.00. Use these flags in the pro-
gram when it is necessary to detect errors.
