1769-IF4XOF2 Module Data, Status, and Configuration Channels 4-9

The manipulation of the bits from this file is normally done with
programming software (e.g. RSLogix 500, RSLogix 5000, RSNetworx
for DeviceNet, etc.) during initial configuration of the system. In that
case, graphical screens are typically provided by the programmer to
simplify configuration. However, some systems, like the 1769-ADN
DeviceNet Adapter, also allow the bits to be altered as part of the
control program, using communication rungs. In that case, it may be
beneficial to understand the bit arrangement.

Bit Definitions for Configuration Data

Sign Bit (SGN)

The sign bit is always positive (Bit 15 = zero).

Enable/Disable Input Channel (EIx)

Word 0 bits 4 to 7 (EI0 to EI3) are defined as the input channel
enable/disable bits. These bits allow individual input channels 0
through 3 to be enabled (on) or disabled (off). When a channel is not
enabled, the module provides no current or voltage input to the host
controller.
