Digital I/O Configuration Digital I/O Configuration The digital I/O for the V+ operating system uses numeric signal numbers, with possible outputs in the range 0001 through 0512, and inputs in the range 1001 through 1512. The mapping from signal num- bers to inputs and outputs is a two-stage process: 1. Map blocks of FireWire I/O to "output blocks" and "input blocks" in the range of 1 to 31, using the FireWire Configuration dialog box. 2. Map the output and input blocks to I/O numbers through the V+ System Configuration dialog box. Additional configuration, such as position latching or I/O changes, can be done using the V+ System Con- figuration dialog box.
Using the Configure (FireWire) Nodes Dialog The FireWire configuration is accessed from the Configure button on the Controller Editor object. For more details, see Controller Editor on page 97. This dialog is used to configure (map) blocks of FireWire I/O, as described in the following steps: 1. Access the On the Controller Editor , click on the Configure button and access the Configure FireWire Nodes . The Configure Nodes dialog box opens.
