5.4 Parameterisation
Parameterisation allows to define the characteristics of the FD67 system and the connected I/O modules,
e.g. :
♦
Function of an I/O channel (Input or Output)
♦
Enable/disable diagnosis and type of diagnosis.
♦
etc.
By using a graphic configuration tool, parameterisation is made easier thanks to the information contained
in the GSD file. Refer to the documentation of the configuration tool.
With the following information, you can assemble the parameter string yourself. See chapter 8 for the
coding of parameter bytes (bus node and I/O modules).

The GSD file contains two preconfigured versions for freely configurable DIO modules.
These preconfigured versions can be used if you need only Inputs or only Outputs on this module.
