Chapter 1 Communicate with I/O Modules
EXAMPLE
In the following scenario, Compatible Module allows I/O communication :
The module configuration is for a 1756-IB16D module with module revision 2.1.
The physical module is a 1756-IB16D module with module revision 3.2. In this case,
communication is allowed because the major revision of the physical module is
higher than expected and the module determines that it is compatible with the
prior major revision.
IMPORTANT
Changing electronic keying selections online may cause the I/O communication
connection to the module to be disrupted and may result in a loss of data.
