Length: 1 Register (2 bytes)

This register has two bytes. Each byte has eight bits. The bits in the Least significant byte are associated with the eight External Digital Inputs in an External Digital Input Module, the most significant bit with input 8, through to the least significant bit with Input 1. The most significant byte is undefined.

A bit value of 1 means the input is open; a bit value of 0 means the input is closed.
