4.4 Output Contacts
Output contacts functionality is fully programmable. The basic I/O module has 5 output contacts three of which are
change over. Additional modules can be added with consequential increases in case size, to provide more
contacts. These are added in-groups of eight up to a maximum of 29

4.5 Status inputs
Status Inputs functionality is fully programmable. The basic I/O module has 3 status inputs these can be set to
high speed for signalling. Additional modules can be added to provide more inputs. Additional inputs are added in-
groups of eight up to a maximum of 27. A pickup timer is associated with each input and each input may be
individually inverted where necessary.
