3.1 I/O POINT CONFIGURATION
This section describes how to configure I/O points in a NETio Unit. This
process is required for each I/O signal connected to a NETio Unit. The
instructions here assume that you have established a PC connection with
the unit as described earlier in this manual.
This section also gives instructions for "mapping" an input to a partic-
ular output. This is required in cases where an input signal connected to
one NETio Module must be regenerated as an output from a different
NETio Module.
Each I/O point has a unique address that corresponds to where it is
located in a NETio Unit. You use this address when mapping one point
to another in a Signal Extender function, or when selecting the point in
a Protocol node.
A point address consists of three fields:
•
—The number assigned to the NETio module.
Module ID
For Expansion Modules: The Module ID is set by the user (see
ASSIGNING MODULE IDs
•
—This number references the physical termina-
Point Number
tion number of a particular I/O point on a NETio Module. It is
automatically assigned.
Each I/O point connected to a NETio Unit has an address with the
format shown below. Each field is separated by a comma:
<Module ID>,<Point Number>
3.2 I/O NETWORK MENU
The I/O Network menu shows the Base Module and any Expansion
Modules (if present) connected via the Backplane/power connector or
WeXP. If there are a large number of modules in the network, it will be
necessary to scroll down the screen to view all entries.
I/O points are configured by selecting the module that a signal is wired
to and then selecting a particular I/O point. When a wireless expansion
module is selected the WeXP LED blinks to indicate that it is being
accessed for configuration.
Select the letter associated with the module containing the I/O point
to be configured. Proceed to
MDS NETio-TB Installation & Operation Guide
on Page 24).
