8.12.1 Selection of process value 1, 2
Read the current process values to the SIMATIC CPU with the DR 30 and DR 31 data records 
and the FB SIWA function block. The transfer of a larger data record is based on "acyclic 
services". It may take several SIMATIC CPU cycles and therefore have a negative effect on 
system performance.
The I/O interface of the SIWAREX module is the best option if a process value is to be rapidly 
transferred to the SIMATIC CPU as soon as it is created in the SIWAREX module. Data is 
applied cyclically by FB321 and provided as a tag in the scales data block. 
The relevant code from the table below must be entered to define the tag for output via the I/O 
interface.
