Determine Consumed I/O Assembly
Devices, when enabled with DeviceLogix functionality, can receive
additional data across DeviceNet. This data is called network inputs.
The consumed I/O parameter lets you select how much data you
want the device to consume from a master. After setting this
parameter, the same number of bytes must be selected in the
scanner’s scan list. For example, if you choose 3 bytes of data to be
consumed, you must indicate that 3 bytes of data are to be transmitted
in the scanner’s scanlist. If the number of consumed bytes and the
number of transmitted bytes do not match, the connection cannot be
made.
Note that this parameter is not in all DeviceLogix-enabled devices.
To change a consumed I/O assembly:
1. Click the current value of the Consumed I/O Assembly.
The field turns into a drop-down list box.
2. Click the arrow to display the values.
3. Click the desired value.
4. Click Apply to save the new value without closing the window.
Or, click OK to save the new value and to close the window.
