Chapter 8 I/O Allocation for I/O Conversion
Box (only for standard type of
controller)
This chapter lists the I/O allocation tables to apply when the I/O conversion box is
mounted on the controller.
The I/O conversion box should be used with an optional parallel I/O board mounted so
that the "INPUT (CN8)," "OUTPUT (CN10)," and "I/O POWER (CN7)" used on the RC5
controller can be used as is.
Note: The I/O conversion box cannot be used for the global type of the controller.
For details about the I/O conversion box, refer to the RC7M Controller OPTIONS
MANUAL, Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "I/O Conversion Box."
8.1 I/O Allocation Modes with I/O Conversion Box Mounted
Using the I/O conversion box requires an optional parallel I/O board to be
mounted, for compatibility with the RC5 controller. The ports on the parallel I/O
board offset the shortage of standard mini I/O ports.
The table below lists the selectable allocation modes when the I/O conversion
box is used.
