This field is only for IP I/O cards. It defines the IP communication channel
between the E3 controller and the IP I/O devices on the network. All IP I/O devises communicate on the
same control socket. The socket number consists of a multicast IP address and port number separated by
a colon (:). The default I/O Control Socket is 239.238.238.238:50000.

The IP controller includes eight built-in inputs and eight built-in outputs. The built-in inputs and outputs

contact is open and activate when the input contact closes.
