Wire Status Variables to I/O Modules
You can wire a variable to an I/O module so the application can receive status
information from the module. The AADvance Workbench provides a structure
(T9K_TA_GROUP_STATUS) for module status information. To wire a status
variable to an I/O module do the following:
1) Declare a variable in Dictionary. Use the type T9K_TA_GROUP_STATUS and
make sure that the direction is set to input.
2) Select a module from the I/O bus.

The unwired term appears in the Variable field.
3) Click the button adjacent to the Variable field.

The variables dialog box opens.
4) Select the variable you declared in the Dictionary.

The variable is displayed in the Variable field.

The status variables are automatically assigned and appear in the Wiring
column with the description in the Description column.
5) Repeat steps 1 to 4 for other I/O modules.
