Understand Parameters
The bottom portion of the Parameters dialog box contains the
parameter list box. All the parameters of the I/O device that can be
modified are listed here. Most of these parameters are specific to the
I/O device and are not discussed in this publication. However, the
following four parameters are specific to DeviceLogix functionality:
• Comm Status Override
• Network Status Override
• Consumed I/O Assembly
• Produced I/O Assembly
Before we help you determine values for DeviceLogix parameters, we
will discuss network I/O.
Understand Network I/O
Network I/O is data that is consumed or produced by a
DeviceLogix-enabled device that is not directly associated with any
hardware on the device. The produced and consumed cases are
discussed separately.
