Outputs: Sinking
4.2 Assignable Input/Output Functions
The following Input/Output (I/O) functions apply to the 24 VDC I/O connector. There is a maximum of eight
inputs and eight outputs for the 24 VDC I/O connector.
It is important to understand the controller responds to the rising and falling edges of input functions as they
are asserted or removed, not while the levels are high or low. The STOP bit is an exception: it is a true “OR”
function rather than working off the transition.
The table below lists the available input and output functions, gives a brief description and indicates the
configuration options for each. The configuration options are an important aspect of the I/O functions, as they
add powerful, multiple dimensions to each function not previously seen in Stanley tool controllers. These
new dimensions allow integration of these controllers in unique ways, providing an amazing amount of
flexibility.
Please see the full description of each function in the section following this table.
See Appendix A for assigning of inputs and outputs using Embedded Tool Box.
