SW-IODR-001 Required driver for some I/O
modules (See the NOTE be low)
* Only applies to A984-130/145, E984-241/245, and E984-251/255 controllers.
NOTE: PCFL (Process Control Function Library) panel software is not supported.
Note: Some A120 I/O modules (DEP 211/214/215/217, DAP217/211, ADU211/
214/216, DAU204, VIC2xx, and MOT20x) require a loadable (SW-IODR-001) for
proper operation when using certain PLCs (A984-1xx, E984-24x/251/255) with
Modsoft. In contrast, these separate loadables are not needed when using other
PLCs (E984-258/265/275/285). Refer to the A120 Series I/O Modules User Guide
(890 USE 109 00 formerly GM-A984-IOS).
