If the PLC sets bit #5 for example, the number in the IOUT is increased by 16. I can then set bit #8 by increasing the IOUT by 128. This does not reset bit #5. In the other PAKOUT case, in5 is TRUE while I set in8 and the same "number" is written to the PLC as seen in the PAKOUT parameter. But then in5 is reset. And why does bit #32 freeze the block?
