Mapping RediSTATION Input Data for a Block Transfer Read
The RediSTATION operator interface’s input byte is mapped to the
scanner’s block transfer read data table through a 62 word BTR. In this
example, we use data file N9:0.

The bits for the RediSTATION
operator interfaces’s red and green
buttons are mapped into the
1771-SDN Scanner’s BTR data
table.
What’s Happening?
The BTR data table is then
transferred via a BTR to the PLC-5
processor’s input data file.
Important: The 1771-SDN module only
makes the data file available for the
processor to read. The 1771-SDN does
not move the data file to the processor.
R = bit for red button (STOP)
G = bit for green button (START)
