4.1 I/O Addressing

The distribution of input devices and that of output devices to an AH500 series input/output module
installed on a local backplane are explained in this chapter.
HWCONFIG in ISPSoft
The following is the HWCONFIG window in ISPSoft. Please refer to chapter 8 in AH500 Operation
Manual for more information related to the hardware configuration.
The software-defined address
Addresses are automatically assigned to an input/output module through HWCONFIG in ISPSoft. In
other words, a start address is automatically assigned to an input/output module through
HWCONFIG in ISPSoft.
The user-defined address
Users can assign a start address to an input/output module through HWCONFIG in ISPSoft. The
advantage is that a start address assigned to an input/output module is the address set by users.
Besides, users can write a program easily.

4.2 Software-defined Addresses

4.2.1

Start Addresses for Digital Input/Output Modules

Input/Output devices are automatically assigned to a digital input/output module through
HWCONFIG in ISPSoft according to the number of inputs/outputs which the digital input/output
module has. The default start addresses are shown below.
AH16AM10N-5A: There are 16 inputs. The input device range occupies 16 bits. (Xn.0~Xn.15)
