Port Status

Under Event Configuration > Port Status, there is a list that shows the status for the connected inputs and outputs of the AXIS 240Q. This is for the benefit of an operator, who cannot access the System Options section.

Example: If the Normal state for a push button connected to an input is set to Open circuit, as long as the button is not pushed, the state is inactive. If the button is pushed, the state of the input changes to active.
