AutoMate Programming in Rail Mode

In Rail mode, the Analog Rail module is imaged in one I/O register of

the processor. Data from one of the four channels will occupy the

register as a function of the channel select bits. The active channel

is updated at the end of each scan. For input channels, the two

channel select bits in the register must be set to the appropriate

input channel number. After the I/O update, the register contains the

data in the format shown in figure 4.7. For output channels, the data

in the register must be in the format shown in figure 4.8 prior to the

I/O update.
