Technical data

The input or output area must always begin with an even byte
number and must always end with an odd byte number.
The fields remain empty if no input or output areas are required for the
cyclic I/Os.
The input area/output area for ZP must not exceed a maximum of 256
bytes.
If you want to reserve areas for the global I/Os (GP), remember the
following when you are reserving areas:
GP and ZP input areas must not overlap.
GP and ZP output areas must not overlap.
The reserved input area for GP and ZP must not include gaps.
The reserved output area for GP and ZP must not include gaps.
The input area per station for GP and ZP together must not exceed a
maximum of 256 bytes.
The output area per station for GP and ZP together must not exceed a
maximum of 256 bytes, of which a maximum of 64 bytes are reserved
for GP.
The I/O area reserved for the GP and ZP must not be used by
other I/O modules.
An online modification of the GP/ZP area only becomes
effective after the CP 5430 TF has gone through power
off/power on.
