or the other (auxiliary or spare). Different types of inputs and outputs serve different
purposes.
• Auxiliary inputs are limited to controlling the console LED indicators. These are
typically used to monitor alarms or show voter status.
• Spare inputs can control console LED indicators and can also be associated with
function keys. For example, spare inputs can perform configurable functions, such
as selecting a channel or transmitting.
• Auxiliary outputs can be interlocked with other auxiliary outputs and associated
with auxiliary inputs. Auxiliary outputs have more choices than spare outputs when
configuring the LED behavior. There are up to 38 auxiliary outputs available, so
they can be labeled in CPSW for reference purposes.
• Spare outputs cannot be interlocked, associated with inputs, or labeled. Spare
outputs have less choices for LED configuration. Spare outputs 7 and 8 can be used
for a special purpose related to ANI. See Outputs 7 and 8 in Reverse Selective
Calling Mode on page 129.
• The eight inputs on the main board can be configured to be all spares or all
auxiliary. Likewise, the eight outputs on the main board can be configured to be all
spares or all auxiliary.
• The number of auxiliary inputs and outputs can be increased by adding Aux I/O
Cards (see Model 4010 Auxiliary I/O Card on page 56). Each Aux I/O Card has six
inputs and six outputs, and you can add up to five Aux I/O Cards. For more
information about auxiliary inputs and outputs, see Auxiliary Input/Output on page
128.
• There is no method for adding more spare inputs and outputs.
♦ To configure the main board I/O as spare or auxiliary
1. Click Edit, System Configuration, Input/Output Configuration.
2. To configure the inputs as auxiliary, mark the Use Control Board Spare Inputs as
Aux Inputs checkbox.
3. To configure the inputs as spare, clear the Use Control Board Spare Inputs as
Aux Inputs checkbox.
4. To configure the outputs as auxiliary, mark the Use Control Board Spare
Outputs as Aux Outputs checkbox.
5. To configure the outputs as spare, clear the Use Control Board Spare Outputs as
Aux Outputs checkbox.
Tip You will have to make choices about whether you need spare or
auxiliary inputs and outputs before you configure them. Therefore,
you should read about and understand the differences provided in
the following list before you start configuration procedures.
