8.2. Content of the Gateway’s DPRAM Memory
The LUFP9 gateway’s DPRAM memory contains all of the data exchanged between the gateway and the
8 TeSys U motor starters, as well as two special registers only exchanged between the gateway and the
DeviceNet master (words used for managing the downstream Modbus network).
The flow of data exchanged between the TeSys U motor starters, the gateway and the DeviceNet master is
shown below, in order to highlight the role of the gateway’s memory in these exchanges:

8.2.1. Input Data Memory Area
The gateway has 512 input bytes. Only the first 32 bytes are used. All of these 32 bytes make up the
gateway’s input area, referenced as “Input 1” in the RsNetWorx configurator.
