You can set either channel A, channel B, or both channels for RIO
scanner mode. However, if you set both channels for RIO scanner,
you need to make sure that they are on separate blue hose cables as
shown here.

Important: Block transfer is not supported on channels configured
for RIO scanner.
When you are using a device such as a Bulletin 1201 Graphics
Programming Terminal (GPT), if you look at the data from the PLC
Communications Adapter Board, you should be aware that the
information for each rack within a channel is placed in word 0.
For example, if you have two 1/2 racks being scanned on one
channel, the low 1/2 rack will place data in parameters 351 through
354, and the high 1/2 rack can also place data in parameters 351
through 354. However, from the PLC scanner side, this information
could be viewed in parameters 322 through 329.
