Set IOChannel

Set IOChannel

Set IOChannel Mode

Description

Sets general I/O channel settings for the specified channel, these settings are available

User Level

to all channels and I/O serial pins.

Admin

Syntax

set iochannel <i/o_channel> [mode enableddisabled]

 

[description <string>]

Options

i/o_channel

 

Specify the channel number, for example, d2 or a4. Temperature models use Analog

 

input, so the channel numbers are a1-a4.

 

mode

 

Enables the channel, allowing the settings to become active.

 

description

 

Provide a description of the channel, making it easier to identify. The channel

 

description can be up to 20 characters.

Set IOChannel Digital I/O

Description

Sets up the Digital I/O channel to act as either an output or input channel.

User Level

Admin

Syntax

set iochannel <digital_channel> resource-type inputoutput

Options

digital_channel

 

Specify the Digital channel number, for example, d2.

 

source-type

 

Specify whether the channel will drive the line (output) or will be reading the status of

 

the line (input). The default is Input. The internal jumpers must match the software

 

configuration, so if you change this setting to Output, you will have to also change the

 

internal hardware jumpers.

Set IOChannel Digital Input

Description Sets the Digital input settings for the channel.
