In configuration mode, you can locally configure inputs and outputs for temporary use during commissioning of the device. You can configure inputs and outputs that have not been configured through WorkStation.
You can reconfigure, unconfigure, and override a locally configured I/O point using the override display. The I/O configuration is locally stored in the device. The local I/O configuration is not uploaded to the Enterprise Server database and the local I/O configuration does not appear in WorkStation. You can change the I/O configuration using WorkStation. The final I/O configuration must always be done in WorkStation.
To enter the configuration mode, you press and hold down the Home key
The icons on the I/O List screen indicate which I/O points you can configure, reconfigure, or unconfigure. 有关更多信息,请参阅 Icons . The highlighted I/O point is flashing to indicate that you are in configuration mode.

There are three universal input/output types: Ua, Ub, and Uc. Depending on which of these three types you have, you can locally configure different types of inputs and analog outputs.

You can configure a temperature input for use with one of the following thermistor types:
10K ACC: 10 kohm Type I (Continuum) thermistor or SmartX Living Space Resistive Temperature Sensor
1.8K TAC: 1.8 kohm Xenta thermistor
10K CSI: 10 kohm Type II (I/NET) thermistor
10K Satchwell: 10 kohm Type III (Satchwell) thermistor
10K S-well linear: 10 kohm linearized (Satchwell D?T) thermistor
10K Invensys: 10 kohm Type IV (FD) thermistor
10K I-sys: 10 kohm linearized Type V (FD with 11 kohm shunt) thermistor
1K Balco: 1 kohm Balco thermistor
20K Honeywell: 20 kohm Honeywell thermistor
2.2K J Controls: 2.2 kohm Johnson Controls thermistor
You can configure a supervised input for use with one of the following supervised circuit types:
NO Series: Normally Open (NO) circuit with a resistor connected in series with the switch
NC Series: Normally Closed (NC) circuit with a resistor connected in series with the switch
NO Parallel: Normally Open (NO) circuit with a resistor connected in parallel with the switch
NC Parallel: Normally Closed (NC) circuit with a resistor connected in parallel with the switch
NO Series/Parallel: Normally Open (NO) circuit with one resistor connected in series with the switch and one resistor connected in parallel with the switch
NC Series/Parallel: Normally Closed (NC) circuit with one resistor connected in series with the switch and one resistor connected in parallel with the switch
You also configure the resistor value for the supervised circuit.
There are three digital output types: relay output, triac output, and high power relay output. Depending on which of these three types you have, you have different options for locally configuring the digital output.

When you configure a digital output as a tristate output, the selected output point and the next output point form a pair.
Similarly, when you configure a digital output as a tristate pulsed output, the selected output point and the next output point form a pair.
A digital input can be locally configured as one of the following types:
