Groups in an input module

A Group name must match a Group name that comes from the input

module. In this example, the Group name (Fire1) must match the

Group name that is assigned to the input contact (01) in Figure 25

"Groups in an input module" (page 105). Under the Group name Fire1,

two Members are listed, which are actual output Devices (Device 2000

and Device DO_02_01).

If a user presses the button connected to Contact 01, the Input

Program eIO generates an Alarm for group Fire1. eIO sends this

information to the eKERNEL, where a group is present with the

name Fire1 for the eIO Module. The alarm is passed on to the group

Members: 2000 and DO_02_01.

• Alarm

The Alarm description also comes from the input program, and can be

the identifier of the input program or a character string that is received

from an external device (for example, eCAP, eAPI).
