SeaI/O User Manual
Hardware Configuration
The SeaI/O-463 and SeaI/O-470 are the only two modules that require you to open
the enclosure. On all SeaI/O modules, most device settings can be configured on the
left side of the SeaI/O module. Refer to the SeaI/O Hardware Description section
of this manual for a list of common features available and settings that can be
changed on the left side of the SeaI/O module.
When connecting more than one SeaI/O module to a host computer, you will need to
set the device address (Slave ID). This can be done in software or by using a rotary
switch on the left side of the enclosure. Refer to the SeaMAX Application Suite
section where you can find instructions for configuring the device address (Slave ID)
and setting the termination pull up and pull down resistors.
