When the channel is configured as digital input or when configuring an input serial signal pin, the Output Channels parameter displays all the local digital output signals or relays that it is associated with.
When the channel is configured as digital output, you must select a local digital input channel or input serial signal pin on the IOLAN.
Note that the Failsafe Action is not compatible with the
client-initiated tcp-port
The TCP port that the channel/serial signal pin will use to listen for incoming connections.
Default: 2000 for channel 1, then increments by one for each channel
client-initiated multihost
When this option is enabled, multiple I/O channels and/or TCP/IP applications can connect to this channel/serial signal pin. The default is off.
server-initiated tcp-port
The TCP Port that the channel/serial signal pin will use to communicate to another IOLAN or a TCP/IP application.
Default: 2000 for channel 1, then increments by one for each channel
Used for connections going from the Digital input channel or input serial signal pins, allows the input channel/serial signal pin to communicate to either all the hosts in the multihost list or a primary/backup host schema (see Configuring Multiple Hosts in the IOLAN User’s Guide for a more detailed explanation).
local-connection <input_channel>
Specify the Digital input channel or input serial signal pin that will control the Digital/Relay output channel or output serial signal pin.
