4.1.2 Specifying monitoring interval
You can continue to monitor the I/O state of Rhio10 at a specified time interval by setting
[Setting Monitor Interval]. The valid value for monitoring intervals is any number between 2 and
10 seconds. In the specified time interval, Rhio Manager sends a state request command and
receives a response from Rhio10 and displays it on the screen.

4.1.3 Monitoring I/O port
Upon receiving a state request command from Rhio Manager, Rhio10 returns information on the
overall states of the digital input, analog input and digital output ports.
-
Digital Input Port shows the ON/OFF state of input.
-
In Level mode, ADC Input Port converts the analog value retrieved to a digital value in
1,024 steps and displays the converted value (“0000”-“1023”).
-
In Switch mode, ADC Input Port compares the input value to a specified threshold value
and displays ON if it is higher and OFF if not.
-
Digital Output Port displays the ON/OFF state, operation condition for an output port,
and standby state.
4.1.4 Controlling digital output port
You can place your mouse over the Digital Output Port LED of Rhio Manager and left-click it to
control ON/OFF state.
-
When the operation condition for a digital output port is not specified, the ON/OFF state
for the port is toggled each time you left-click your mouse.
-
When the operation condition is specified, the port is set to ON if it is met, and it is set
to OFF and displayed as a standby state if not.
