Each NIO has eight sub-parameters for configuration. These are outlined in the FUNCTION BLOCK
OBJECTS & SUB-PARAMETERS section on page 2 and in the illustration above. Using NIO 105 as an
example:
10500=1
- Identify the remote controller node as # 1
10501=4
- Set NIO 105’s attribute as being an Analogue Input
10502=17
- Identify the remote controller object instance as # 17
10503=0
- For the purpose of providing Units to the NIO value, Identify the sensor type relating
to the object being read or written to
10504=0
- Configure as an input – NIO 105 will take on the value of controller 1 object
instance 17
10505=0
- No special value scaling required
10506=0
- No other point assigned to override (digital) the NIO or provide minimum limitation
(analogue) to the NIO output
10507=0
- No other point assigned to enable/disable (digital) or provide maximum limitation
(analogue) to the NIO output
Reset to Factory Default
If using a device that has previously been programmed it is recommended to reset the device to Factory
Default before reprogramming to ensure any old settings that are unwanted in the new program do not
have any influence on the new application.
To perform a Factory Default reset enter
FD=1
A device set at Factory Default settings will have ‘FD’ displayed in the top line of the Main physical point
summary screen [M]).
Note: If using devices with firmware less than version 4.00 then you must download the Factory Default text file
to reset the device to Factory Default.
Upload Text File
In event that application files are lost it is possible to retrieve an application settings Text File from a
device using the UE (Upload Eeprom) command.
After entering UE the current settings in the device will be printed on to the terminal screen. With
HyperTerminal it is possible to Capture this upload:
1) Start a Capture Text from the Transfer menu of HyperTerminal
2) Enter UE
3) After the print of all settings has completed then stop the Capture
4) Locate the text file which was created during the Capture process
5) Clean up the file by deleting any lines that are not relevant setting lines
6) Count the number of lines (paste in to Excel cell A1 is a fast way to check the line count)
7) Add one more line at the bottom of the file with content 10000=nnn
a. nnn value is the number of lines previously c 1
b. Ensure there is one line return after the 10000=nnn line
This text file is now ready for saving as a backup or for Down Load to other devices.
Other terminal programs may have other processes for saving the uploaded text. In some cases it may
simply be a case of copying the relevant lines of the screen and pasting in to Notepad. Whatever the
process, the 10000=nnn line must be added if the file is to be used for Down Load in future.
