Understanding the I/O Image
The terms
input and output are defined from the scanner’s point of view.
Therefore, Output I/O is data that is output from the scanner and consumed by
the EtherNet/IP adapter. Input I/O is status data that is produced by the adapter
and consumed as input by the scanner.
The I/O image table will vary based on the configuration of
Host parameters
C169 [MultiDrv Sel]
and C175 [DSI I/O Cfg]. The image table always uses
consecutive words starting at word 0.
The
Multi-Drive Example of I/O Image on page 90
is an illustration of the
Multi-drive I/O image with 16-bit words.

or powered down, the Logic Status and Feedback words for the affected drive will
be set to 0.
