Using Multi-Drive Mode

The DeviceNet specification requires that the terms input and output be
defined from the scanner’s point of view. Therefore, Output I/O is data
that is output from the scanner and consumed by the DeviceNet adapter.
Input I/O is status data that is produced by the adapter and consumed as
input by the scanner. The I/O image table will vary based on the:

• Configuration of the Mode Jumper (J2) on the adapter and

Parameter 15 - [DSI I/O Cfg]. The image table always uses
consecutive words starting at word 0.
