    3- -8 Understanding the Features PLC Register Examine the address conventions for Automationdirect (DirectLOGIC) and Allen-Bradley. For example, the DirectLOGIC address references are octal, and Assignment Allen-Bradley’s decimal. DirectLOGIC DL05/DL105/ Examples DL205/D3--350/DL405 OP-panel address uses V-memory registers which are 16-bit registers. The DL305 family uses reference assignments with 8-bit registers. This means that the DL305 will require thirty 8 bit registers for data handling.
