ain8pt
Generic 8 point AIN module
Description
The ain8pt I/O module provides eight I/O channels from Generic 8 Point Analog input
hardware. Data for each of the eight I/O channels may be connected to user-defined
variables with the I/O connection editor. Connected variables are updated continuously with
data from the Generic 8 Point Analog input hardware.
Set the ain8pt module_address to match the address switches on the Generic 8 Point
Analog input hardware.
The ain8pt I/O module may be used in place of any other 8-point analog input-type module.
The ain8pt module type is a useful selection early on in the system design stage before the
final selection of the specific analog input module is known.
