Connection Type
Description
Compact 5000 I/O Standard Input Modules
Compact 5000 I/O Standard Output Modules
Data
The module returns the following to the owner-controller:
• General input data
• General fault data
• Counter data - Not available with all modules
The module returns the following to the owner-controller:
• General fault data
• Output data
Data with Events
(1)
The module returns the following to the owner-controller:
• General input data
• General fault data
• Input data time stamp
• Event input data time stamp
• Event fault data
• Event input data
• Event output data
• Counter data - Not available with all modules. With the modules that
can provide counter data, they only provide it based on the Input Data
selection.

Listen Only Data
A controller can make a Listen Only Data connection with only some standard local I/O modules. When a Listen Only data connection is used, another
controller owns the module.
A controller that makes a Listen Only Data connection to the module does not write configuration for the module. It merely listens to the data
exchanged with the owner-controller. That is, the listening controller listens to general input data and general fault data.
IMPORTANT
: If a controller uses a Listen Only connection, the connection must use the Multicast option.
For more information on Listen Only connections, see
. In this case, all other connections to the module, for example, the
connection to the owner-controller must also use the Multicast option.
(1) Data with events is available on only the 5069-IB16F and 5069-IB6F-3W standard input modules.
