send 2 bytes of data.

'HVFULSWLRQ RI WKH 6 HQG

An FB RECEIVE is triggered in every cycle.

Parallel to the send job, an "AG_RECV" FC is called to fetch received data from the CP. The data is saved once it has been completely received.

If the "FB RECEIVE" signals newly received data, an FB SEND" is triggered with the newly received data to send the received data back.

Once the RECEIVE job has been processed without error, the data to send is incremented by 1 and the send/receive cycle begins again.

Is the hardware configuration in the project (offline configuration) identical in every way with the actual configuration (online configuration)? Has the CPU been reset?
