Supporting an I/O Map for an I/OBus Network

Introduction

The 171 CCS 760 00 and 171 CCC 760 10 Processor Adapters have an I/OBus
communication port that enables them to control and communicate with network
slave I/O.

If you are using I/OBus to control network I/O, you need to write an I/O Map in your
configuration. This section describes the configuration parameters required to
support an I/O Map for I/OBus.

I/O Map
Reserved Words

By default, 512 words are reserved for I/O Mapping. This may or may not be the
appropriate memory allocation to support your I/OBus network. A rule of thumb for
roughly estimating the number of words required for I/O Mapping is:

l

16 words for overhead

l

10 words/module on the network (including both the local and the network I/O)

The idea behind adjusting the memory size is to allow you to completely I/O Map
your network while preserving as much user memory as possible for your
application program.
