Ref. 013001000100 Rev.1: 18-01-2021 Jumper configuration General jumper configuration The 10 I/Os Digital Module provide 10 digital pins that can act as both input and output. However, they can only be working as one option at a time, so if their function is wished to be changed the jumpers must be adjusted.

Ref. 013001000100 Rev.1: 18-01-2021 Warning! Outputs: if the pin is working as output, its jumper of Zone 3 must be connected as the 3.3 – 24 V option. Inputs: if the pin is working as input, DO NOT connect the jumper if you are using a power supply voltage of 230V as it will damage the device and could burn it.
