BI without subsystem-specific extension

The following tables show the properties for the channel configuration of binary inputs (BI) without any subsystem-specific extension.

The listed properties are displayed in the Hardware and network editor > Inspector window > Properties tab when the data point is selected in the Device view tab.

Number of channels

"Number of channels" defines how many channels are used by the data point.

If more than one channel is used by the I/O data point, all properties are stored in the first channel.

Signal type

"Signal type" defines the DRA signal type. Available signal types depend on I/O module type. The signal type can be edited.

Save as

"Save as" saves the set parameters of the I/O data point as an xml-file.
