5.1.7 Hardware channels
Hardware channels can only be connected to a function block input or output. A
hardware connection can be established in ACT or SMT. When a hardware channel is
connected a graphical symbol appears in ACT, see
Figure 38. The connection is also
represented in SMT with a cross mark. Hardware channels are always visible in SMT.
Supported hardware channels are:
• Binary input channels
• Binary output channels
• Analog input channels
A hardware input channel can be used as often as it is needed. A hardware binary
output channel is taken from the list of available channels when a new channel is
requested. That prevents for using a hardware binary output channel twice. As an
example, see
Figure 38.
