10.4 DDB (Direct Data Bus) ... Asynchronous DDB
The DDB function is used for PLC to directly read/write various pieces of data that controller has. PLC
can read specified data into buffer or write specified data into controller by storing necessary
information for read/write and calling the DDB function. Generally, data is read or written for each
data piece; data concerning the control axes is processed in batch as many as the specified number
of axes.
