Using Controller Tags
User Manual
For example, if you expand MNETC.DATA, you will see that it contains two
UDTs, ReadData and WriteData. Both of these are 600-element integer arrays
by default.
Notice that these UDTs are the data types used to declare the
MNETC.DATA.ReadData and MNETC.DATA.WriteData controller tag arrays.
Each UDT is commented in the Description column.

3.3.1 MNETC.DATA
The controller tags in MNETC.DATA hold data to be transferred between the
processor and the MVI56E-MNETC/MNETCXT module. This read and write data
is transferred between the processor and module as "pages," or blocks, of data
up to 200 words long.
The data types for the MNETC.DATA.ReadData and MNETC.DATA.WriteData
controller tag arrays are integer arrays containing variable numbers of elements.
