IMPORTANT
In these examples, only channel B is configured as a
remote I/O scanner. You can configure both
channels as remote I/O scanners simultaneously if
necessary.
If only one channel is configured as a remote I/O
scanner, we recommend you use channel B. If you
configure channel A as a remote I/O scanner, you
cannot use the programming terminal on the front of
the 1756-DHRIO module for DH+ access.
Also, throughout this chapter, we show sample
configuration screens with each example. Specific
configuration information is dependent on your
application needs.
