Configuring outputs
Outputs can be used to send signals from ibaPDA to a PROFINET controller via a device
slot.
The device must have at least one slot with input data for this purpose. This must be
taken into account in the controller configuration.
For configuring the outputs, select the "Outputs" tab in the I/O Manager. Modules which
have been configured on the input side (hardware tab) may be displayed here.

Note
ibaPDA processes output signals with lower priority compared to the acquisition of input
signals with a cycle not faster than 50 ms depending on the I/O configuration.
