Setting up an on/off input

Introduction

For a general introduction to on/off inputs, see An introduction to on/off inputs.

To add an on/off input to a protocol, click the Add item button in the ribbon bar and select New input item > New on/off input from the menu which appears.

The New input item menu option is only included if the protocol mode includes input/output.
The New on/off input option will be disabled until the protocol includes at least one apparatus element.

 4.Specify whether the physical port used by the input is always the same, or whether it depends on the location of a movable zone. 
 5.Specify the physical port (or ports) used by the input.
