Using Local I/O

The objectives of this chapter are to help you plan:

The number of discrete output lines (up to 14) that your application will
require.

The function that each output line will perform in your application.

The assignment of analysis tool “results” to output lines.

The assignment of status signals to output lines.

The electrical and mechanical connections of the trigger (input) and
output lines to your production equipment.

The local I/O consists of:

I/O Interface Box (Catalog No. 2801–N21, –N27)

I/O Board (Catalog No. 2801–JMB)

User specified I/O modules (plug into I/O board)

Communications Cable (2801–NC17)

As shown in Figure 3.1, the communications cable (Catalog No.
2801–NC17) is connected to the MODULE I/O port on the front of the Color
CVIM module and the connector on the I/O Interface box. The I/O board
connector slides into the connector slot on the I/O Interface Box.
