For 9/230, 9/440 and 9/290 systems with the remote I/O option using
revision 10.01 or later firmware, both single, block transfer, and pass
through remote I/O should be available depending on your AMP, PAL or
softkey selection. The remote I/O module on the 9/260 is a standalone
module with its own I/O processor and firmware revision. The following
table illustrates some common 9/260 Remote I/O configuration errors.
