| INPUT OPERATION
The input operation will be different depending on the configuration chosen for the input and the input pin being configured.
Input power for each port needs to be enabled to recevie 9-32V DC on pin1, See Control Message 1.
Input A
1. Disabled, MODE = 0
It is recommended to disable any inputs that aren’t being used. Putting a “0” in the mode for an input disables the input.
2. Positive On/Off, MODE = 1
This puts the input into the standard discrete positive operation mode. When a positive voltage is present on the input pin, the low bit will turn on.

3. Ground On/Off, MODE = 2
This puts the input into the standard discrete ground operation mode. When a ground is present on the input pin, the low bit will turn on.

4. Frequency, MODE = 7
This puts the input into frequency operation mode. When a positive signal is present on the input pin, the frequency will be shown.
5. Counter, MODE = 8
This puts the input into counter operation mode. When a positive signal is present on the input pin, the count will increase.
6. Encoder, MODE = A
This puts the input 7A into Encoder operation mode. When a positive signal is present on the input pin the count will increase. Both input 7A and 8A
are used for the encoder input, when changing input 7A to encoder mode it automatically sets up 8A to work with it.
