Configuring Discrete I/O Input Channels

The CLMD16 supports "Discrete I/O" inputs such as signals from Maretron's CKM12 and
VMM6 units. Configuring the CLMD16 to act upon "Discrete I/O" inputs starts first with
choosing which "Discrete I/O's" you want the CLMD16 to "watch for" or be assigned to act
upon. Every "Discrete I/O" device has a unique "Data Instance" for the device as a whole and
"Indicator" numbers corelating with the "Discrete I/O's" every switch. Apply the "Discrete I/O"
device's "Data Instance" and "Indicator" number to the CLMD16's "Discrete I/O" input channels
to then enable these CLMD16 input channels to be used to plug directly into an ECB control
input or used as inputs to "Switching Elements" of:
"Counter"
1)
"Flash"
2)
"Latch"
3)
"Logic"
4)
"Timer"
5)
"Toggle"
6)
Please note that if the "Discrete I/O" device is to report the CLMD16's ECB status, the
"Discrete I/O" device itself needs to have each of its "Indicators" to be assigned to the
CLMD16's "Data Instance" and particular ECB it is "watching". See below the CLMD16's dialog
for "Discrete I/O" input configuration.
