9. Exchanged Data Structures 9.1 Output (Control) Data Format
The size of the output data structure from the network master to the PBDP-110
depends on the module selected from the GSD file for the network configuration tool.
Module #1, intended for applications where only 1 drive is connected to the PBDP-
110 (via Channel A), is comprised of 16 bytes structured as four 32-bit words.
Module #2, intended for applications where drives are connected to both Channel A
and Channel B, is comprised of 32 bytes structured as eight 32-bit words.
