11.4 Remote I/O mode
After the module has been set up with an address, you can start configuring it in the network with the
configuration tool of the PLC. Refer to the manual of the supplier of your configuration tool for instructions for
that tool.
This example, a typical ComBricks setup with remote I/O, is built up as follows (see Fig. 63)

The first two slots are occupied by Scope Repeater modules, then a Slave PBS-001, then an 8DO module
followed by a 4 Relay module.
The slave has been assigned an address of 124 and is not in Data Exchange yet. The master that will control the
PBS-001 is on the first Scope Repeater with address 2.
Open your configuration tool and insert/import the PBS-001 GSD with filename PROC696F.gsd (download it
from www.procentec.com/gsd).
Then insert the correct modules into the configuration tool. In the first slots 1 and 2 insert two 'Empty Slots'.
These are not really empty because they are occupied by Scope Repeater modules, but the PBS-001 cannot
interact with them so they are considered to have no configuration.
In slot 3 place a PBS-001, in slot 4 an 8DO-24V-0.5A and the last module is the 4RO-230V-5A.
Fig. 64 shows the complete configuration for this ComBricks system.
