• Test Value – Sets the value used for overriding the host value.
• Used by – Sets where the variable is being sent.
• Other – <ramp> Ramps the test values up or down.
• Description – Add details about the variable.
For HostOut, the host I/O packet is used to define the values for the information going out on the
port. The IO packet values include:
• Name – Enter the HostOut variable name.
• Offset – Sets the offset location in the Ethernet packet for the data associated with the vari-
