Input / Output Configuration
The Series 4000 is equipped with eight spare inputs and outputs. Auxiliary inputs and
outputs are added by adding Auxiliary I/O cards. There are important differences between
spare I/O and Aux I/O, as described in the following list.
•
Auxiliary inputs
are limited to controlling the console LED indicators. These are
typically used to monitor alarms or show voter status.
•
Spare inputs
are conceptually the same as pressing a key on a panel. For example,
spare inputs can perform configurable functions, such as selecting a channel or
transmitting.
• Auxiliary outputs can be interlocked with other auxiliary outputs and associated
with auxiliary inputs. Auxiliary outputs have more choices than spare outputs when
configuring the LED behavior. There are up to 38 auxiliary outputs available, so
they can be labeled in CPSW for reference purposes.
• Spare outputs cannot be interlocked, associated with inputs, or labeled. Spare
outputs have less choices for LED configuration. Spare outputs 7 and 8 can be used
for a special purpose related to ANI. See Outputs 7 and 8 in Reverse Selective
Calling Mode
on page 386.
• The number of auxiliary inputs and outputs can be increased by adding Aux I/O
Cards (see
Auxiliary I/O Card Installation (Optional)
on page 72). Each Aux I/O
Card has 40 auxiliary inputs and 12 auxiliary outputs, and you can add up to 6 Aux
I/O Cards. For more information about auxiliary inputs and outputs, see
Auxiliary
Input/Output on page 386.
• There is no method for adding spare inputs and outputs.

To enable and name the auxiliary inputs and outputs
The names of the auxiliary inputs and outputs is used for reference within CPSW
only. Although this is not required, providing identifiable names will ease
configuration later when defining keys.
1. Click
Edit, System Configuration, Input/Output Configuration
.
2. Use Next and Previous to select the main board I/O or the appropriate I/O card to
configure.
3. Enter the names for inputs and outputs that need to be configured.
4. Mark or clear the
Enable
checkbox to enable or disable inputs and outputs.
Tip
Spare I/O and Aux I/O serve different purposes. Therefore, you
should read about and understand the differences provided in the
following list before you start configuration procedures.
