RIO Baud Rate
Remote I/O links with Allen-Bradley PLCs operate at one of three data 
rates (expressed in kilobits per second). These are 57.6KB, 115.2KB, 
and 230.4KB. Toggle to the rate which matches the RIO link to which 
you are connecting and press ENTER. 
RIO Rack Size
The IMC-S/23x can be configured to occupy 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, or a full rack 
on the RIO link. Toggle to the desired rack size and press ENTER. 
The Rack Size parameter–along with the Rack Address and Starting 
Group–determine where in I/O space the IMC-S/23x "appears" to the 
RIO scanner, as shown in the table below. 
The rack size also determines the number of user-defined discrete bits, 
as shown in the table below.
In general, set the rack size to the smallest value which provides enough 
user-defined discrete I/O for your application.
