CHAPTER 8: GENERAL I/O
NOTE: Each EXL6 OCS unit is sent with a datasheet in the box. The datasheet is the first
document to refer to for model-specific information related to EXL6 OCS models such as pin-
outs, jumper settings, and other key installation information. Visit the Horner websites to obtain
datasheets, user documentation, and updates.

8.1
Overview
The EXL6 OCS is a compact unit that contains high density, very versatile I/O. Using the I/O
properly requires wiring to the proper terminals, configuring jumpers inside the EXL6 OCS unit
and configuring Cscape properly. This section will offer some tips and suggestions to configure
the I/O properly. For the register mapping of the I/O, refer to the Index at the end of this manual
for the pages referencing register mapping.
8.2 Removing the EXL6 OCS I/O Cover
Some I/O configurations require jumper settings to be changed in the EXL6 OCS unit. Examples
of these settings are setting positive or negative logic on digital inputs or setting current or
voltage on analog inputs.
Each EXL6 OCS I/O jumper is set to a factory default. Refer to the EXL6 datasheet to find the
default setting to determine if a jumper change is necessary for a particular application.
To remove the I/O cover of the EXL6 OCS, remove the four (4) Phillips screws from the I/O
back. It may help to place the EXL6 OCS unit face down on a clean work surface. Once the four
screws are removed the I/O cover can be lifted straight off.
WARNING: Power, including I/O power
must be removed
from the unit prior to removing the
back cover. Failure to do so could result in electrocution and/or damage to equipment
