Counter Enable. An enable byte that turns any input point into a synchronous counter. Set to 0 to turn off (default). Set to 1 to enable the
16-bit counter (report type must be set to analog). Set to 2 to enable the 32-bit counter (report type must be set to double). (Parameter
number 0x18). The counter value is stored in the Modbus registers. For a 32-bit counter type, Modbus registers N and N+1 are used.

Default Value (bits 15:0). Defines the default state for each output on all devices. This parameter only applies to outputs. A value of
65535, or 0xFFFF, sets the default value to the last known state. (Parameter number 0x11). There are five conditions that cause the
output points to be set:

• Bit 1. Power-up. If enabled, output points are set to the default state when the device powers up. When disabled, outputs are set to 0

when the device powers up.

• Bit 2. Node Out-of-Sync. If enabled, the output points are set to the default state when a Node determines it is out of sync with the

Gateway (7 to 10 sec). When disabled, no action takes place for the output points when an out-of-sync condition is detected.

• Bit 3. Host Link Failure. A Modbus user-defined timeout period expired. If enabled, a host link failure forces all device outputs to the

user-defined default state. Each device can be enabled/disabled for this feature.

• Bit 4. Gateway Link Failure. The Gateway has detected a problem with a Node in the system. If enabled, any Node outputs linked to

the failing device are set to the default state when a Gateway link failure is detected. Each device can be enabled or disabled to use
this feature.

• Bit 5. Node Link Failure. The Node detected a problem communicating with the Gateway. If enabled, the Node sets all outputs to the

user-defined default state when a Node link failure is detected. Each device can be enabled or disabled to used this feature.

Delta (bits 15:0). Defines the amount of change required between two successive analog input sample points to trigger a report condi-
tion. To disable (default), set to 0. (Parameter number 0x0F).

Duty Cycle (Outputs only) (bits 15:0). This parameter defines the proportion of time the output is active. Using the 16-bit field, each
“on” bit represents 1/16 seconds. For example, 0000 0000 0000 1111 (0x000F) sets the duty cycle to 1/4 seconds; 0000 0000 0000 0011
(0x0003) sets the duty cycle to 1/8 seconds. (Parameter number 0x04).

Enable Flag (bit 0). Enables (1) or disables (0, default) the I/O point. (Parameter number 0x01).

Hysteresis (bits 15:0). Works with the active threshold parameter to define when to disable event reporting of an analog input. The
hysteresis parameter defines how much below the active threshold the analog input is required to be before the analog input is consid-
ered to be off. Value range: 0 (disable, default) through 65535 (two-byte value). (Parameter number 0x09).

I/O Config. The I/O Config parameter is a configuration parameter for smart sensor devices. This parameter also defines I/O information
for the Extended Logic I/O type. (Parameter number 0x14).

I/O Type (bits 7:0). Defines the operations required to operate this I/O point. Every enabled I/O point must have a defined I/O type.
(Parameter number 0x02). This parameter is hardware specific and is not typically changed from the factory settings. (See input and
output type tables after this section.)

Invert Flag (bit 0). Complements the polarity of the sensed I/O point. A value of 1 becomes 0. An analog value is not changed, but an
analog value with a threshold and hysteresis is complemented. Value range: 0 (inactive) to 1 (active). (Parameter number 0x10).

Low Pass Filter. This parameter defines the operation digital filters for standard analog inputs. Setting parameter bit 7 enables a median
filter. Parameter bits [2:0] define the output filtering magnitude. (Parameter number 0x12).

Power Supply # (bits 7:0). Turns on a local power supply to supply power to an external device. A parameter value of 0 indicates no
power supply. A parameter value of 1, 2, 3, or 4 enables that particular internal supply connection. (Parameter number 0x0D).

Value range: 0 (external power supply, default), 1 (selects SP1), 2 (selects SP2), 3 (selects SP3), and 4 (selects SP4).

Three parameters define a power supply connection: power supply selection, voltage, and warm-up time. The voltage parameter defines
the supply voltage. The warm-up parameter defines the time the power supply is on before evaluating the input point.

Pulse Width (Outputs Only; bits 7:0). The number of 62.5 ms intervals a digital output is active (1) before returning to zero. Zero
disables the pulse width feature and any value on an output point remains indefinitely. Maximum pulse width is about 16 seconds. Value
range: 0 (disable, default) through 255. (Parameter number 0x0A).

Report Rate (bits 15:0) . The report rate defines the rate that the I/O status is reported back to the Gateway. The value represents the
number of 62.5 ms increments. Report rates can be from 0 to 4095 seconds. A non-zero report rate guarantees a report on a periodic
basis AND at change of state. When set to zero, there will only be a report at change of state. Value range: 0 through 65535. (Parameter
number 0x04).
