Parameter Settings dialog box - I/O Channels tab
Currently, the options on the I/O Channels tab only function on DEA machines. Other machine types may be added in the future.
With the I/O Channels tab, you can select options related to the use of controller I/O channels and place an IOCHANNEL/ command into the Edit window that define the state of the controller.
Some machine controllers are equipped with I/O channels that can be SET to an ON state (a value of 1) or RESET to an OFF state (a value of 0). The IOCHANNEL/ command tells PC-DMIS to set the state as specified.
To edit information in the I/O Channels tab:
Access the Parameter Settings dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Parameters).
Click on the I/O Channels tab.
Make any changes.
Click Apply or OK.
