Adding Bus Controllers and I/O Modules

When you select Insert from the System screen, the following menu appears

Configure Bus Controller groups

Configure Input Group

Configure Output Group

Configure non-voted discrete I/O

Configure non-voted analog I/O

Create the configuration by selecting items from the menu, then completing entries on the screens that appear. Instructions for completing these screens begin on the next page.

To display the configuration screen for the currently-highlighted menu selection, click on it with the mouse or press the Enter key.

The Bus Controller and I/O group configuration windows have some additional mouse or keyboard features not used in other configuration windows.

On the example screen below, three Bus Controller groups have been configured. Group 1 has five input and output block groups. Group 2 has two I/O block groups. No I/O has yet been configured for Bus Controller Group 3.

On this screen, you can move between Bus Controller groups by clicking the mouse on the group you want or by pressing the Alt key then entering the number of the Bus Controller group.

If you want to display all of the I/O group windows as they are shown above, select

Windows, then Cascade from the functions at the top of the screen.
