2.2.1  [MODULE] 
The [Module] section contains the data that applies to the whole module and includes the 
backplane data transfer parameters. 
Module Name 
0 to 80 characters 
This parameter assigns a name to the module that can be viewed using the 
configuration/debug port. Use this parameter to identify the module and the configuration 
file. 
Read Register Start 
0 to 3999 
This parameter specifies the starting register address of a block of data registers to 
transfer from the module to the processor. This will be used for data brought into the 
processor from other nodes on the network. 
Write Register Count 
0 to 4000 
This parameter specifies the number of registers to transfer from the processor to the 
module. 
Write Register Start 
0 to 3999 
This parameter specifies the starting register address of a module register block where 
data transferred from the processor will be stored. This will be used for data to be sent 
from the processor to other nodes on the network. 
Write Register Count 
Range 0 to 4000 
This parameter specifies the number of registers to transfer from the processor to the 
module. Valid entry for this parameter is 0 to 4000.
