Guidelines for differential inputs and outputs
Differential inputs and outputs behave differently than standard inputs and outputs. There
are two pins per differential input and output. Determining whether a differential input or
output is on or off requires that you measure the voltage difference between these two pins.
See the detailed specifications for the CPU 1217C in Appendix A (Page 879).
