User's Manual

Current implementation of eIO is limited to configurations of up to 8 modules attached to one
FP-1000 controller module. Avaya recommends starting the first module with number 01 and
incrementing by one for the other modules. Specify the leading 0 in the numbering (do not
specify 1, but specify instead 01).
An authorized of an entry typically found in this field is as follows: 01
eIOAI_Contact_str
This value refers to each individual contact, and is specified in the FieldPoint Explorer. Valid
values are in the range between 01 and 08 for the currently supported FP-AI-100. Note that
contact numbers start with 01 and are incremented by one. You must specify the leading 0 in
the numbering (do not specify 1, but specify instead 01). Note that some peripherals of National
Instruments include labels and documentations where contacts start numbering at 0 up to 7,
whereas eIO starts at 01 up to 08.
An authorized of an entry typically found in this field is as follows: 01
eIOAI_Min_S_str
The value specifies the analogue level measured on a contact to set a minus-level alarm. If
minus-level alarms are to be disabled a 00,000000 value can be specified.
Note:
All values must be specified in format 00,000000 with 2 digits before the decimal separator
and 6 digits after the decimal separator. The decimal separator must be set according to the
operating system regional settings.
Refer to the FieldPoint Explorer documentation on how to configure the FP-AI-100 module.
Each channel can individually be set according to the attached input, and allow specifying the
unit of measurement en the measured input range. Avaya recommends that you first test the
peripherals with the FieldPoint Explorer prior to configuring and taking eIO into production.
Note:
Check your operating system settings to find out which decimal separator is in use. Avaya
recommends that you set the operating system to the country specific values, thus the locale
Belgium (Dutch) in Belgium, even when an English operating system is installed. These
regional settings result in internal usage of decimal separator symbols in the form of period
(.) or comma (,). If your system is set up with comma (,) as decimal separator, a comma (,)
must also be specified when values are entered in the database.
An authorized of an entry typically found in this field is as follows: 03,000000
