Could someone help me understand how the modbus mapping is handled for the MotionWorks IEC software? I have an existing application where I have been able to follow along with the pattern to add everything I needed, but I haven't been able to find the starting point.

For example, I have a variable under this section:
Modbus FC#02 Qty: 128 Inputs, Address Range: %QX54.0 - %QX69.7

It's address is %QX57.4 and in the description, someone had labeled it Modbus 10029, which is fine. But where does that correlation exist in the software? I've looked in the hardware configuration as well. I'm an AB guy so I am just trying to understand this better.
