I/O ENBL

This bicolor LED is green if the I/O scan is
enabled and data is being received from the
bus. Otherwise, this LED is amber.

Is ON if one of more I/O points is forced* or
bus switching is forced.

SBA ERR

Is ON if a duplicate device SBA or no valid
SBA is selected.

* Forcing inputs and outputs from the programmer does not force the actual input
and output points on the NIU. Forcing actual I/O points requires the use of
datagrams from the PLC to the NIU.
