1.3 Product Configurator
Figure 1 - Product Configurator Block Diagram - shows how the six digital I/O boards (including
the PC36AT) may be connected, using the supplied cables, to form a variety of systems. The
simplest usable system configuration comprises one board from the PC212E, PC214E,
PC215E, PC218E or PC272E range, a 78 way cable and an EX233. This system provides user
terminals to all I/O functions of the board. More complex, configurable systems include isolated
or common ground input and output at low or high level.
All five boards employ the concept of I/O Groups, where a group can be six 16 bit counter timers
with interconnects, or 24 lines of digital input/output. These groups are integrated as necessary
to provide the specified functionality.
A software configurable clock and gate source group provides five precise frequencies for
counter/timer input, and also allows for counter/timer inter-connection.
The user I/O connector map recognises this grouping and allows any combination of expansion
panels to be directly added to any of the boards, with each panel mapped onto a counter/timer
group or digital I/O group.
