Outputs types and output ports
Each output type can be assigned to one of the 6 physical output ports on the SPC controller or to an
output on one of the connected expanders. Output types that are not assigned to physical outputs act as
indicators of events on the system and may be logged and/or reported to remote central stations if
required.
