In addition, many of the I/O modules have a two-pin connector that is used to connect a voltage
source (usually +24VDC). This voltage source drives the output terminals of the I/O modules.
Installing I/O Modules
The expansion modules for the HMC7000 snap onto the back of the HMC7000 thru expansion slots. The
HMC7030A-M and HMI7035A-M units support up to three modules. The HMC7057A-M unit supports
up to five modules.
Configuring the I/O Modules
The I/O expansion modules for the HMC7000 Series are assigned to the proper slot using MAPware-
7000. Note that any project downloaded into a HMC7000 with modules that do not match the physical
configuration of the unit will not run. Therefore, it is important to correctly identify the I/O modules in
the MAPware-7000 project.
Regardless of the particular HMC7000 model used, the steps to configure the I/O modules are very
similar:
1. Open a new project and select the appropriate HMC7000 model. Click OK.
2. On the Project Configuration dialog box, enter the appropriate information and then click OK.
3. In the Project Information Window, click on the I/O Allocation folder, and then click on the
Expansion folder.
4. Double-click on Slot 1 to display the I/O Allocation dialog:
