Number of I/O Points in a GMR System

The I/O capacity of the system depends on whether the CPU is a model 788 or model 789. For most applications, these limits will not be reached. If you need help estimating I/O sizes for a large application, contact GE Fanuc at 1-800-828-5747.

Non-GMR I/O: Non-GMR I/O is I/O that is not included in the GMR configuration. The amount of non-GMR I/O that can be used depends on the amount of GMR I/O present and the CPU memory capacity. The tables below show how much memory is available for non-GMR I/O (main part of tables) for given numbers of GMR inputs and GMR outputs. In the equations, the GMR Inputs and GMR Outputs are the actual number of I/O configured with the programming software.

Number of Non-GMR I/O Available for the 789 CPU

These numbers are determined by the limits of physical I/O based on the Logicmaster configuration and table size limitations based on the manner in which GMR maps I/O into multiple locations in the I/O tables (this is explained in chapter 4).
