Configuring Your Block I/O for PLC Family

Programmable Controllers

In this chapter, you will learn how to configure your block I/O when used
with PLC family programmable controllers. This includes the following:

 setting the configuration switches
 addressing the block I/O

Each block I/O module has two 8-position switches for setting:

 starting I/O group
 I/O rack number
 communication rate
 last chassis
 last state
 block transfer/discrete transfer
 processor restart/lockout

These switches are accessible by opening the clear plastic door on the front
of the module (Figure 3.1).

ATTENTION: Recycle power to the block I/O module after
setting the switches.

Setting the Configuration

Switches
