8-10 Communicating with Extended-Local I/O
How Chassis Size and Backplane Addressing Determine the Quantity of I/ORacks
On the extended-local-I/O scan list, the actual chassis size and
backplane addressing is displayed, not the rack size.
• The scan list for extended local I/O has one entry for each physical
chassis on the extended local I/O channel.
If an adapter on a remote I/O channel resides in a physical chassis that
contains more than one I/O rack, more than one entry appears on the
remote I/O scan list for that single chassis.
The following table shows the scan list for both remote I/O and
extended local I/O. Each channel shows a 16-slot chassis using 1-slot
addressing with a starting address of rack 4, module group 0. This
chassis contains logical racks 4-5.
