I/O NUMBER ASSIGNMENT
6.4 What is I/O Number?
I/O numbers indicate the addresses used in a user program to input or output ON/OFF
data between the C Controller module and other modules.
(1) Input and output of ON/OFF data
Input (X) is used to input ON/OFF data to the C Controller module, and output (Y) is
used to output ON/OFF data from the C Controller module.
(2) I/O number expressions
I/O numbers are expressed as hexadecimal.
When using 16-point I/O modules, I/O numbers are consecutively assigned to each
slot having 16 points of 0 to F as shown in Figure 6.13.
The module mounted in the base unit is assigned as follows:
• For the input module, "X" is prefixed to the I/O number.
• For the output module, "Y" is prefixed to the I/O number.
