The following settings in the General tab relate exclusively to the outputs. For all other settings, see the description in chapter ibaBM-DP device module.
Calculation timebase
Timebase (in ms) used for the calculation of the output values. The calculation timebase is not the same as the output timebase with which the values are output!
Minimum output timebase
Timebase with which the outputs can be updated as quickly as possible. The value is acquired automatically by the system based on the current I/O configuration and is only displayed here. The output timebase results from the smallest common multiple of all module timebases or is at least 50 ms.
Bus 0/1
Enable default values
If the value is TRUE, for a slave which is not supplied with data, (e. g. broken FO cable, stop of data acquisition in ibaPDA) the default values are sent by the device.
If the value is FALSE, the signal values which have been received last, will be repeated.
The default values can be individually set for the outputs for each signal. If the value is TRUE, an additional column Default is displayed for the analog and digital signals.
When selecting the Output menu, the modules which have been configured under Input are displayed. Outputs can be used only for modules of the type "Active slave".
You can configure a new module of the "Active slave" type by clicking on the blue "Click to add module…" command. In the dialog box, only the "Active slave" type module is available. Add the module by clicking on <OK>.
