class. In a ladder diagram, OUTPUTs are put at the right sides of function blocks with pins sending the operation
results to the caller.
 INOUT

Symbol used as a feedback pin of a function block
A symbol of this class is used as a feedback pin of a function block. It can only be declared in the function block.
Please refer to the following example. When the function block is called, the caller sends the value in D1 to DT_IO,
which is a symbol of the INOUT class. After the operation comes to an end, the final value of DT_IO is sent to D1. In a
ladder diagram, the symbols of this class are put at the left sides of function blocks.
5.4.3 Data Types
The data type of a symbol determines the format of the value of the symbol. Suppose there are two symbols VAR_1 and
VAR_2. The data type of VAR_1 is BOOL, and the data type of VAR_2 is WORD. If VAR_1 and VAR_2 are used in a
program, VAR_1 will represent a contact, and VAR_1 will represent a 16-bit device which can be involved in arithmetic
operation or transferring the data.
The data types supported by ISPSoft are listed below.
