Define I/O Module Terminal Markings

Click in the first terminal and enter the terminal marking value.

Repeat for all terminals.

Note: If any terminals are left unmarked, a warning regarding this will be received when OK is selected. The device may still be saved however.

If required, enter default descriptions of the terminals in the description boxes next to each terminal.

Note: The <Tab> key can be used to jump between terminals and description boxes.

Example:

Note: Users can set a Terminal to be a 'Plug and Socket' or 'Normal' terminal by right-clicking and setting the Terminal Type. This may be useful to show a Plug and Socket connection to a DCS or PLC system. Plug and Socket terminals are shown on Wiring Manager termination reports and Wiring Manager Designer's AutoCAD termination drawings.

Wiring Manager also enables additional terminals to be defined, such as those requiring a power supply, earth, field bus termination .

To add additional terminals, enter the required number of additional terminals in the Additional Terminals section.

Additional Terminals are always added to the right side of the I/O module.
