Edit and validate I/O assignments

The Mapping view is a table that displays I/O auto assignment references for application and system objects that are linked to DI object scan groups. Only auto-bound references are displayed in the Mapping view. Application and system objects not yet assigned to a scan group, and manually configured references and are not shown. To be visible in the Mapping view, the object must be selected in the IO Devices view.

When you initially open the Mapping view after starting the IDE, the table will scroll so the far right column is in view.

• Selecting a DI object in the IO Devices view lists I/O auto assignment attributes for all auto-bound objects linked to all scan groups under it.

• Selecting individual scan groups restricts the scope of the information displayed in the Mapping view to the auto-bound objects that have been linked to the selected scan groups.

• Selecting individual application or system object further restricts the scope of attributes displayed to only those associated with the selected object.

  Note: You can select multiple items in the IO Devices view. Selected items can be at different hierarchical levels. Selecting a subordinate object will exclude non-selected objects within the device hierarchy, even though the parent object is selected.

In the Mapping view, you can view and validate I/O references for each automatically generated attribute, and you can override the automatically generated I/O references. As is the case in the IO Devices view, you do not have to check out objects to change their I/O assignments.
