Setting digital output (multi-channel versions only)
The IQ
+
FLOW® multi-channel pc-board is equipped with three digital outputs. The digital outputs can be used for driving
shut-off valves (for instance). The digital outputs can be read or written via the parameter 'IO Switch Status'. The parameters
can be set as indicated in the value table below. Note that this parameter is channel-independent. Each output can be
accessed via all channels. E.g. by writing this parameter via channel 2, it is possible to open/close a shut-off valve located at
channel 1.
