Press Add to add a new node. A new node is added with header but with no inputs or outputs. Press
Remove to remove the last node. Press Apply to make to the change immediately without leaving the
form. With the horizontal slider you can select which node you want to present.
Specify for each node how many inputs and outputs you have. Normally nodes are built with I/O blocks,
each having eight inputs or outputs. If you have one block, specify 1-8 signals. If you have two blocks
specify 9-16 signals, and so on.
Beside every input or output signal there is a combo box. With this you can select to which PLC signal you
want to connect the input or output. The I/O device, as well as Stacklight, Indicator Box, and Operator
Panel, can map all boolean signals located in the I/O area and in the shared area. Boolean outsignals
starting with “SO_” in the fieldbus area can also be mapped by these devices since they belong to the
shared signals. See I/O Device for more details on how to set up and program these signals.
