In addition to "Cyclic Send" it is also possible to transfer a further 16 bits of binary
information to the PLC / PC via acyclic services. The "Acyclic Send" function blocks allow
you to specify the information to be transferred acyclically to the automation system via the
communication bus. The inputs (plugs) of the function blocks must be connected to the
respective sockets.
The Acyclic Send function blocks consist of:
● Eight bits each (= two bytes, byte 0 and byte 1 for binary information)
● One output each to the communication bus
There are two "Acyclic send" function blocks.
The following schematic shows the "Acyclic send" function blocks:
Figure 4-57 Function block "Acyclic send"
Acyclic send data will only be transferred on request. The information (two bytes) can be
found in data record 203. This data record can be read by every master (PLC or PC) that
supports the acyclic services of the communication bus.

device inputs, send data, status information, events, etc.)
