Digital I/O Operation in the ControlLogix System
I/O modules are the interface between controllers and field devices in a
ControlLogix system. Digital I/O modules transfer data to devices that require
just one bit to be represented (0 or 1). For example, a switch is open or closed, or
a light is on or off.
