Set Up Universal I/O Channels
If your RMC includes a
Universal I/O
module, you must first set up the
high-speed channels before using them as part of an axis.

In the Project pane, expand the
Modules
folder and double-click
the UI/O module.

Quadrature Input
or
SSI Axis Input
.
For more details, refer to the
UI/O module
topic in the RMCTools
help.
