CHAPTER 9: GENERAL I/O


Note: Each XLe/XLt unit is sent with a datasheet in the box. The datasheet is the first document
you need to refer to
for model-specific information related to XLe/XLt models such as pin-
outs, jumper settings, and other key installation information.
The web version of this manual
has all of the XLe/XLt datasheets attached to it. Visit our website (see page 96) to obtain
datasheets, user documentation, and updates.


9.1 Overview

The XLe/XLt is a compact unit that contains high density, very versatile I/O. Using the I/O properly
requires wiring to the proper terminals, configuring jumpers inside the XLe/XLt unit and configuring
Cscape properly. This section will offer some tips and suggestions to configure the I/O properly. For the
register mapping of the I/O, refer to CHAPTER 13.


9.2

Removing the XLe/XLt Back Cover






Some I/O configurations require jumper settings to be changed inside the XLe/XLt unit. Examples of
these settings are setting positive or negative logic on digital inputs or setting current or voltage on analog
inputs.

Each XLe/XLt I/O jumper is set to a factory default. Refer to the data sheet for your XLe/XLt model to find
the default setting to determine if a jumper change is necessary for your application.

To remove the back cover of the XLe/XLt, remove the four (4) Phillips screws from the back of the unit. It
may help to place the XLe/XLt unit face down on a clean work surface. Once the four screws are
removed the back cover can be lifted straight off.
