Configuring Speciality I/O Modules
When you use a specialty I/O module, you must indicate the type of module to APS.
The configuration menu provides a list of available modules from which to select.
Each module is pre-configured, so after selecting the module from the list you have
the option of viewing its configuration by pressing [F9], SPIO Configuration.
Alteration of the fields is not recommended since these fields are pre-configured.
However, if you select a module not listed, you may be required to alter some of the
fields. Refer to your specialty I/O module user manual for more information
regarding the required parameters.
