EXAMPLE
In the following scenario, Disable Keying prevents I/O communication.
The module configuration is for a 1756-IA16 digital input module. The physical
module is a 1756-IF16 analog input module. In this case, communication is
prevented because the analog module rejects the data formats that
the digital module configuration requests.
EXAMPLE
In the following scenario, Disable Keying allows I/O communication:
The module configuration is for a 1756-IA16 digital input module. The physical
module is a 1756-IB16 digital input module. In this case, communication is
allowed because the two digital modules share common data formats.
