4.3 Configuring Scalable I/O devices using RobotStudio
General
This section describes the recommended working procedure when installing and
configuring ABB Scalable I/O devices in RobotStudio.
For information about configuration using the FlexPendant, see
I/O devices using the FlexPendant on page
When the I/O device is configured using Plug & Produce interface, it requires
minimal user interaction. Follow the working procedures to configure a new I/O
device, update an existing I/O device and to replace an I/O device with another.
Configuring an I/O device
When a base I/O device and an add-on I/O device are connected to the controller,
they must be configured.
This procedure describes how to configure the base I/O device and add-on I/O
device at the same time. However, if more add-on I/O devices should be attached
after the first configuration of the base I/O device, use the
device on page 60

Note
Safe digital base devices (DSQC1042) cannot be configured using the
FlexPendant.
The Safety services grant is mandatory for configuration of safe digital base
devices.
Note
A maximum of 4 safe scalable I/O devices can be used at the same time with an
OmniCore controller.
