Check Port Information

This operation is used to check port information, conduct a simulation test and modify polarity for ports and so on.

The relation between the status of the machine tool and IO ports is as follows:

• Input port: means no signal while means having a signal.

• Output port: means no signal while means having a signal.

To check port information, do the following:

1. To enter IO PORT window, click IO PORT:

   

2. Select the target port and do one of the following:

   • To conduct a simulation test, click Test On:

     • Input port:

     • Output port:

   • To close a simulation test, click Test Off:

     • Input port:

     • Output port:

   • To cancel a simulation test, click Canl Tst.

   • To cancel all simulation tests, click Canl All.

   • To modify the port polarity, click Convt Port.

   • To show all supported ports, click Disp All.

   • To set the port attribute, click Port Attr and do one of the following in Inport Sampling Setting dialog box :

     

     • Set the sampling interval.
     • Enable Filter and Port Enabled.
     • Rename the port.
     • Modify the port description.
