Using the I/O

Chapter 5 provides information and examples that explain how to use the
I/O to control, configure, and monitor a PowerFlex 4-Class drive.

On ControlNet, I/O messaging is used to transfer the data which controls
the PowerFlex drive and sets its Reference.

The adapter provides many options for configuring and using I/O,
including configuring the size of I/O by selecting the number of attached
drives (Single or Multi-Drive mode).
