Circuit jumpers are located on the module to change the input path from
current to voltage.

The configuration file is typically modified using the programming
software compatible with your controller. It can also be modified through
the control program, if supported by the controller. See Channel
Configuration in chapter 4 for more information.

Step 5: Go through the startup procedure.

Module and channel configuration errors are reported to the controller.
These errors are typically reported in the controller’s I/O status file.
Channel status data is also reported in the module’s input data table, so
these bits can be used in your control program to flag a channel error.
