Input and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by configuring the
setting. The default of EXT I/O terminal 2 is "ALARM IN 2" and of EXT I/O terminal 3 is
"ALARM IN 3". It is possible to determine whether or not to receive input from EXT I/O
terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) by selecting "Off", "Alarm input", "Alarm output" or "AUX
output" for "Terminal alarm 2" or "Terminal alarm 3" on the [Alarm] tab on the "Alarm setup"
page. Refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for further information.
The default of EXT I/O terminals is "Off". When "Off" is selected, it is possible to connect
external devices as well as the input setting.
When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not cause
signal collision with external signals.
