Block Request from Processor to Module
Number of Slaves in Block
The module will respond with a block with the same identification code received
and indicate the number of Slaves acted on with the block. The following table
describes the format of this response block.

Command Control Blocks (5001 to 5006 or 5101 to 5106)
Command Control blocks place commands in the command list into the
command queue. Each port has a command queue of up to 325 commands (for
modules with firmware version 3.01 or higher and Add-on-Instruction version 2.8
or higher). The module services commands in the queue before the Master
command list. This gives high priority to commands in the queue. Commands
placed in the queue through this mechanism must be defined in the Master
command list. Under normal command list execution, the module will only
execute commands with the Enable parameter set to one or two. If the value is
set to zero, the command is skipped. Commands may be placed in the command
list with an Enable parameter set to zero. These commands can then be
executed using the Command Control blocks.
One to six commands can be placed in the command queue with a single
request. The following table describes the format for this block.
