%R register table size

1 to 16

Specified in increments of 1K

Voted Discrete

Enter the number of 16-circuit and 32-circuit discrete input and output groups in the system (plus any spare groups you may add in the future). Each input group may consist of 1, 2, or 3 blocks. The GMR software will assign these voted I/O addresses at the beginning of the I/O tables, and ªrawº data addresses at the end of the I/O tables (similar to the illustration of analog inputs, below, and discussed in detail in chapter 7).

Analog

Enter the number of groups made up of 6-input analog blocks and the

In Groups

number of groups made up of 4-input (2-output) blocks. Include any

 

spare groups you may add in the future

Tables

Enter the amounts of word memory to be allocated to analog input data

 

(%AI) and register data (%R). These values must match the

 

corresponding values configured using Logicmaster 90.

 

%AI Size: Allow enough %AI memory to accommodate all analog input

 

data, as explained below. The maximum size is 8192 analog channels (words).

 

%AI memory is divided into sections:
