Use the I/O Config web page (

Figure 20 on page 53

) for the functions out-

lined below. The illustrated I/O Config web page shows the default set-
tings for signal names and reporting.

Rear Connectors

All of the input and output connectors on the corresponding 8972PX rear
module are illustrated on the I/O Config web page. The inputs can be con-
figured with the following controls:

Signal Naming

– type the desired input name (up to 12 characters) into the

corresponding boxes for each input. The status of each input is indi-
cated by the color of the display.

Reporting Enabling

– status reporting of each input type to the module

level can be enabled or disabled by selecting or deselecting the corre-
sponding checkbox in the

Reporting Enabled

column for each input type.

You may disable reporting for inputs not being used if desired to avoid
error messages. Disabled signals will be reported as

Not Monitored

.

The

Reporting

Enabled

column is also used when an SNMP monitoring

application such as NetCentral is installed.

Note

The Primary and Secondary input signals Reporting status defaults to
Enabled. However, the Alternate input defaults to Disabled and must be
enabled by the user to be able to monitor it as shown in

Figure 20 on

page 53

. Use the Refresh button after enabling to update the web page.

Refer to

Status Monitoring Summary on page 73

for an explanation of the

color coding and using an SNMP monitoring application.

Note

Outputs are not monitored in this application.
