Understanding slot addressing is critical to most efficiently allocate
your scanner’s I/O image files.

Slot addressing refers to how each remote chassis slot is assigned a
specific amount of the I/O image. The amount depends on which
type of slot addressing you choose at your adapter; 2-slot, 1-slot, and
1/2-slot addressing is available, as shown below:

For more information on slot addressing, refer to your ASB module
user manual.

Note that slot addressing (e.g., 1/2-, 1-, and 2-slot) may not apply to
all types of RIO devices. Refer to each RIO device’s user manual to
determine the type of slot addressing required.
