When reading an I/O Slave's settings through
Tool Suite
, the radio displays as an FGR 900 MHz
I/O Slave, FGR2 900 MHz I/O Slave, or FGR2 900 MHz I/O Slave (Enclosed).
When creating a radio template for an I/O Slave in the Configuration application in
Tool Suite
,
select these radio types to ensure that the proper settings appear:
l
FGR 900 MHz I/O Slave - For the FGRIO-S model.
l
FGR2 900 MHz I/O Slave - For the FGR2-IOS-C-U (board-level) and the FGR2-IO-IOE
models.
l
FGR2 900 MHz I/O Slave (Enclosed) - For the FGR2-IOS-CE-U model.
l
This options exposes additional settings in the Wire Replacement tab for the internal
resistors available only in this model.

3.3 Setting the I/O Slave's Role in the Network

The mode selected enables other settings for that radio.
l
Set the
Modem Mode
in the
Operation Mode
tab, using the
Modem Mode
field.
l
These settings are available in the
Operation Mode
menu in the terminal interface.
l
In a wire replacement I/O system, assign each I/O Slave the
(E) FGRIO Slave (Wire
Replacement)
or
(E) FGRIO Slave (NOT IO-MODBUS)
operation mode, depending on
the version of
Tool Suite
.
l
Selecting this option enables the wire replacement options in the
Wire Replacement
tab.
Note
: An I/O Slave is automatically enabled for I/O functionality based on the Modem Mode setting.
