I/O 16-55). Table 2-9 illustrates the relationship between UNIDEX 600/Encoder card I/O
and Virtual I/O mapping.
The mapping of the encoder card I/O to Virtual I/O only occurs if an axis encoder
feedback channel has been configured for that card. By configuring an encoder
feedback channel on the encoder expansion card, the UNIDEX 600 controller is
made aware of the presence of that card.
Any Virtual I/O not occupied by the UNIDEX 600 card or Encoder expansion cards can
be mapped to third party I/O sources. This can be accomplished by running an
application or thread at the host CPU level that accesses I/O through either the AT-Bus, a
network/PLC interface or a user defined database and copies these I/O states into the
Virtual I/O using the AerVirt functions. In this manner sophisticated communication
structures can be created between the UNIDEX 600 and PLCs without using physical I/O
points and all the associated wiring.
