1) I/O allocation of expansion FP I/O terminal units
x Although the expansion FP I/O terminal unit is not provided with a switch to set a station number, the unit
automatically occupies station numbers when connected to an FP I/O transmitter unit, and the I/O numbers
corresponding to those station numbers are automatically allocated to the added expansion FP I/O terminal unit.
x When adding an expansion FP I/O terminal unit to an FP I/O transmitter unit
1
When adding a unit of the same type (input unit to input unit, or output unit to output unit), the expansion FP I/O
terminal unit occupies the station numbers that follow the station numbers occupied by the FP I/O transmitter unit.
Example:
8-input type
FP I/O transmitter
unit
(No. 0)
X0 to X7
X10 to X1F
Treated as a unit having a total of 32 input points.
16-input type
Expansion
FP I/O
terminal unit
(No. 1 and No. 2)
Station
No.
Set station No. 0.
2
When adding a different type unit (input unit to output unit, or output unit to input unit), the station numbers that
are occupied by the FP I/O transmitter unit are also set in the expansion FP I/O terminal unit.

Example 1:
When adding an output type unit to
an input type unit
Example 2:
When adding an input type unit to an
output type unit
The slave station
number is
automatically set to
No. 2.
Set station No. 0. Set station No. 2.
The slave station number is
automatically set to No. 0.
Note:
(No. 2)
x
When connecting an input type unit to an output type unit, or an output type unit to an input type unit, make
sure that the same station numbers are not occupied by more than one unit.
(No. 0) (No. 0 and 1) (No. 2)

Set station No. 2 to avoid using the same station
numbers that are assigned to another unit.
Example:
Set station No. 0.
