4.2 Assignable Input/Output Functions

The following Input/Output (I/O) functions apply to the 24 VDC I/O connector. There is a
maximum of four inputs and four outputs for the 24 VDC I/O connector.
It is important to understand the controller responds to the rising and falling edges of input
functions as they are asserted or removed, not while the levels are high or low. The STOP bit is an
exception: it is a true OR function rather than working off the transition.
The table below lists the available input and output functions, gives a brief description and
indicates the configuration options for each. The configuration options are an important aspect of
the I/O functions, as they add powerful, multiple dimensions to each function not previously seen
in Stanley tool controllers. These new dimensions allow integration of these controllers in unique
ways, providing an amazing amount of flexibility.
Please see the full description of each function in the section following this table.
