Set Line

Set IO Failsafe

Description

Sets the failsafe (watchdog) settings for I/O.

User Level

Admin

Syntax

set io failsafe [mode onoff] [timeout <seconds>]

Options

mode

 

Enables/disables the Failsafe Timer. This is the global setting that must be enabled to

 

set the Failsafe Action on the channel for digital outputs and relays. When this timer

 

expires because of no I/O activity within the specified time interval, the Failsafe Action

 

set for the channel determines the action on the output.

 

timeout

 

The number of seconds that must elapse with no I/O activity before the channel

 

Failsafe Action is triggered. Valid values are 1-9999. The default is 30 seconds.

Set IO Modbus

Description

Enabling the Modbus option makes the IOLAN act as a Modbus Slave, allowing

User Level

Modbus Masters to communicate with the IOLAN to control and/or retrieve I/O data.

Admin

Syntax

set io modbus [mode onoff] [uid <1-255>]

Options

mode

 

Enables/disables the ability to control/monitor I/O channels using the Modbus protocol.

 

uid

 

This is the UID you are assigning to the IOLAN, which is acting as a Modbus slave.

Set IO Temperature-Scale

Description

Sets the temperature scale that will be used for all Temperature input readings.

User Level

Admin

Syntax

set io temperature-scale celsiusfahrenheit

Option

temperature-scale

 

Select the temperature scale that will be used to display temperature data, either

 

Fahrenheit or Celsius. The default is Celsius.

Set Line

Set Line Service

Description

Sets the Line Service settings to signal I/O. When the line service is set to signal-io,

 

you also have the option of enabling the I/O extension for the serial singal pins. See Set

User Level

IOChannel IOExtension on page 84 for more information.

Admin

Syntax

set line <number> service signal-io

Option

signal-io

 

Sets the line to use signal I/O. You still need to define the serial pins for digital input

 

(CTS, DSR, or DCD) or digital output (RTS or DTR). See Set IOChannel Digital

 

Input (Serial Pins) on page 76 or Set IOChannel Digital Output (Serial Pins) on page

 

79 for configuration options.
