Discrete IO (DCIO)/
Enhanced Discrete IO SIL (EDIO)
Flexible 8 channel input/output modules for 24 Vdc discrete field devices
DCIO’s and the newer EDIO’s are flexible 8 channel discrete (ON/OFF) input/output modules for the Eagle
Quantum Premier LON.
From a configuration standpoint, each channel can be configured to be either an input or an output, supervised
or unsupervised.
The DCIO or EDIO is configured by double-clicking on its selection rectangle on the LON schematic.
This opens the “8 Channel DC or ED I/O Editor...” which provides fields for the entry of any user changeable
parameters.
Being a multi-channel device there are multiple tagnames. At the top of the dialog box there is a device tagname
that refers to the DCIO or EDIO module and is used with its global status and diagnostic events. Below this are
channel tagnames for the status and diagnostics relating to the eight individual channels.
The example above is for a DCIO. Note that the configuration of the DCIO and EDIO are the same, however the
EDIO also supports 2-wire smoke detectors and “Class-A” inputs and outputs so it has additional choices in the
“Type” pull down menu.
It also provides buttons for accessing other configurable items such as alarm and event tracking for the unit and
user levels settings.
