It is possible to map a
digital input to an
analogue output - the
output will be maximum
value when the input is
on and minimum value
when the input is off. It is
also possible to map a
analogue input to an
digital output - the
output will be on when
the input is equal or
greater than 12mA and
off when the input is less
than 12mA.
For more information
on using 105S modules,
refer to Section 4.3.8.
Edit existing mappings
To edit an existing mapping, double-click on the mapping line, or select the mapping line
and click “Edit”.
To delete an existing mapping
To delete a mapping, select the mapping and click “delete” or alternatively right-mouse
button click and select delete.
Configuring Start-Up Polls
When a unit is first turned on, its outputs will not be set until it receives update messages
from other units in the system. To ensure that outputs are set as soon as possible after start-up
the unit may be configured to “Poll” any other units with mappings to its outputs.
Select the remote unit to be polled from the unit list, or enter the unit address in the box. If
the remote unit communicates via repeaters, select the repeater units or enter the repeater
addresses.
Remember that if more than one remote unit is controlling the local outputs, then more than
one start-up poll should be configured.
Configuring Comms Fail Mappings
Each module has a “comms fail” status which may be mapped to a local output. The comms
fail status is active (on) if the module is transmitting a message and does not receive an
acknowledgement after five tries. By setting the comms fail status to a local output, you can
provide a communications alarm. The local output can be digital or analogue - if analogue,
the output will go to maximum value.
