9.) Assignable I/O
Introduction
The Gen IV controller supports assignable I/O.
Buses
The controller is divided up into buses. Each bus has a set of inputs and a set of outputs.
Currently the controller supports the following buses.
Bus Number
Bus
1
Physical I/O
2
Fieldbus (Anybus module) I/O
3
Modbus TCP
4
Ethernet/IP
All assignments have a bus, element, and bit configuration to define its location in the system.
The bus value needs to be set from the list above. The element and bit define the location in the
bus. The first element on the bus is 0 and goes up the last legal element for the given bus. The
bits in each element is referenced from 0(LSB) to 31(MSB).
Inputs
All input assignments have a Bus, Element, and Bit configuration to define its location in the
system. Along with the basic configuration many also have other configuration(s) that allow its
behavior to be modified to suit the application.
