I/O modules
Eleven different module types can be installed in the controller to support both analog and digital inputs and outputs of various types and signal levels. The signal type and I/O capacity for each module type is indicated in Table 1.

Control architecture
The UMC800 uses a function block configuration architecture to develop control strategies for both analog and digital operations. A function block may represent a physical input or output, a group of physical inputs or outputs, an internal calculation, or an internal function such as a PID algorithm. More than 70 standard UMC800 function block algorithm types are available for configuring analog and logic functions. Typically, a function block algorithm type may be used any number of times up to the limit of 250 blocks. Some of these with specific limitations are:
•Control loops (i.e., PID, ON/OFF, TPSC, and Carbon
•Setpoint programmer and associated support
•Setpoint Scheduler and associated support
•Time proportioning output
•Pushbutton
•4 Selector Switch
•Modbus Slave
