3.2 Receiving and Forwarding of I/O Signals Necessary for Operation
The I/O port can deliver the data with the MSEL controller and external signals through
interface.
One port can exchange data for one contact (1 bit).
Data is exchanged via PIOs (24V I/Os) or over a fieldbus.
Either a PIO or fieldbus can connect to each port at a time.
Whether to use PIO or fieldbus is set by a parameter.
indicates flow of data.
Refer to Section 2.2.5 for the PIO interface.
For the each fieldbus, refer to each instruction manual.
