Entering an external input to a sensor amplifier
Available external inputs: PRESET, TIMING, RESET, error clear
This example shows how to enter the TIMING input from Slot 1 (ID01).
In the monitor mode
(1) The output octet value to which an external input request was assigned is linked via
cyclic communication and the external input of the sensor amplifier is turned on or
off. (In the big endian format)
(2) You can check the input status of the sensor amplifier with the external input response.
In the I/O mode
(1) The output octet value to which an external input request was assigned is linked via
cyclic communication and the external input of the sensor amplifier is turned on or
off. (In the big endian format)
