The Word Order Bit, when set, reverses the order of the two words that
contains value information. To correctly transfer floating-point values to and
from some PLC's these bits may have to be set. Typical values are 4095
(0xFFF) for Siemens S5 & S7, Allen-Bradley PLC-5 and SLC PLC's, and 0 for
the Modicon and Allen-Bradley ControlLogix family of PLC's.
This parameter is valid and will appear in the Numeric Data menu only if one of
the following protocols is selected:
