The readout of Input/Output with the IO command differs with the polarity setting by
AB parameter as well.

l Difference of ON/OFF signals and the polarity (AB parameter) of the emergency stop (EMST)
input are shown in Figure A-2.
IO0: Reports the state of circuit in regard to input signal.
IO1: Reports the state of execution of the function (in this case EMST) in regard to
input. [ON (active) or OFF (inactive)]
u If the EMST input is set to the normally open contact (ABX0XXXXXX)
If the EMST input is set to the normally open contact, the readouts of IO0 and IO1 are the same
at the timing of (1) or (2).

u If the EMST input is set to normally closed contact (ABX1XXXXXX)
If the EMST input is set to the normally closed contact, the readouts of IO0 and IO1 are the
opposite at timing of (1) or (2).

In these examples as shown above, the readout with IO1 will show that the EMST signal is
functionally ON or OFF regardless of the setting to the normally open or closed contact.
