Tool I/O

Tool I/O monitors and sets the live I/O signals from/to the control box.

Tap Tool I/O on the left panel. You can see the editable fields of Tool Input and Tool Output on the right.

The Controlled By drop-down menu allows you to select a URCap that can control the tool settings. If a URCap is installed that has this capability, it will be displayed in the list. For instructions on installing a URCap, see URCaps.

When selected, the URCap will be responsible for the following settings:

• Tool Output

  Setting can be 0, 12, or 24 V.

• Dual Pin Power

  Setting is either true or false.

• Domain for analog inputs

  Setting current/voltage per analog input, as seen in the pop-up when you tap one.

• Power Output for digital outputs

  Setting Sinking/Sourcing/Push/Pull, as seen in the pop-up when you tap one.

• Tool Communication settings

  These settings are not available on the user interface, but include enabled, baud rate, parity, stop bits, rx idle chars, and tx idle chars.

Upon selection of a URCap, any controls related to the above settings will be disabled. The new settings will be applied when an entry is selected in the drop-down menu, when the program is loaded, and when the program is played.
