2.1.2 Types of System I/O Signals (Global type of controller)
The global type of the controller concentrates emergency stop related system I/Os on
the safety I/O (CN10), so it does not use the Mini I/O (CN5). (Refer to Sections 4.1.3,
4.1.4, 5.1.3, and 5.1.4.)
It issues PROGRAM START commands as I/O commands by using seven command
execution inputs.
The table below lists the types of system I/O signals.
