Before you connect the Units and set the parameters, you must select the
SmartSlice I/O Units and be sure that the specifications are applicable.
7-2-1
Selecting the SmartSlice I/O Units
You select the SmartSlice I/O Units for the numbers and types of I/O that are
necessary.
Refer to the datasheets and manuals for the SmartSlice I/O Units.
This example uses these Units.
7-2-2
Making Sure That SmartSlice Specifications Are Applicable
There are restrictions in the SmartSlice I/O Units which can connect to one
CompoNet Communications Unit. Refer to the table below.
Be sure the SmartSlice I/O Units obey these restrictions.
Refer to
5-3 I/O Allocations to CompoNet Master Unit
on page 42 for more
information.
This table shows the same items for this example.
