Configure the I/O Interface for TFIO module support
The XIO supports I/O expansion with TFIO modules. This section provides steps to connect the TFIO
modules and to add and configure the I/O Interface application. The I/O Interface application manages
the communication with the modules.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The TFIO port on the XIO supplies power to the modules. The port is
always on when the XIO is powered. Plan connection or removal of the TFIO modules and wired
connectors based on your site requirements:
If the installation area is potentially explosive, remove power to the XIO before module
insertion/removal.
If the installation area is not potentially explosive, it is not necessary to remove power
from the XIO. Connect modules and proceed to section
