When the records are created, the default description is in the format:
mmmm-b-pp
where
mmmm
represents the micro number to which this digital input is associated,
b
represents the board number, and
pp
represents the point or device number.
Example:
0001-1-01 DI
This digital input is on micro 1, board 1, point 1. To change or add to this description, enter text over the
existing text and save the record. It is recommended that you keep the
mmmm-b-pp
prefix in each digital
input displayed to aid in locating the alarm points on the physical hardware. This field accepts a
maximum of 64 characters.
Facility
A
facility
can be assigned for the new Digital Input record from the Facility drop-down list.
The same facility is assigned for all devices associated with the micro when a micro is created.
Be very careful when assigning the facility of a DI to a different facility than the micro. You can
create an undesired result if you do not fully understand facility assignment.
