Mapped inputs
Digital inputs are able to be configured to remotely control outputs on ETH008,ETH8020 or ETH8020, this offers
simple linking and versatile usage. An input in one country can control a output in another, or across a small network.
There are eight independent inputs that can be mapped to eight different relays (on the same or different boards).
The "Address of target board" field accepts an IP address or hostname (which will be converted to an IP address by the
DNS server supplied in the board configuration above). If the module is on the local network then you can use the
assigned IP address, if the target is over the internet then you need to supply the gateway in the configuration (internet
source IP like your router) and the "Address of target board" is the IP address of the targets internet connection (to
point at the router). Accessing the target via a router is dealt with in the section "
Access from the Internet
".
