The following table shows the assignment of the process image size to the
number of occupied PDOs when the mailbox is permanently superimposed
(Mode 1).

n+6-th
PDO
Here, the n-th PDO represents the first PDO occupied by the AS-Interface
Master module. It contains the status / control byte, one empty byte and up to
six bytes of mailbox data.
If the length of the permanently superimposed mailbox is 0 bytes, then the n-
th PDO only contains the status / control byte and one empty byte.
If the process image of the AS-Interface Master module is 12 bytes or 20 bytes
in size, the last PDO is not fully occupied. A further module then starts with
the next PDO.
Note:
When the mailbox size is 6 bytes and 62 AS-Interface slaves are connected,
a process image size of 40 bytes is sufficient to transmit all process data.
The module then occupies five PDOs.
