Channel range = 1-32,767
• Channels 1-253 (output): IR commands.
• Channel 254 (feedback): Power Fail (used with 'PON' and 'POF' commands).
• Channel 255 (feedback): Power status (when IOLink is set).
I/O port
(Port #16)
8-channel I/O port for contact closure, 0-5 VDC voltage sensing, or interactive power sensing
for IR ports.
Channel range = 1-8

RS-232/422/485 LEDs 6 sets of red and yellow LEDs light to indicate ports 1-6 are transmitting or receiving RS-232,
422, or 485 data:
• TX LEDs (red) blink when transmitting data.·
• RX LEDs (yellow) blink when receiving data.
Relay LEDs 12 red LEDs light to indicate relay channels 1-12 are active (closed).
IR/Serial LEDs 8 red LEDs light to indicate IR/Serial channels 1-8 are transmitting control data.
I/O LEDs 8 yellow LEDs light when I/O channels 1-8 are active.
Rear Panel Components
ICSP LED (green) Blinks in unison with the Master card's NetLinx LED indicating the ICSP bus is synchronized.
ID pushbutton Sets the NetLinx ID (D:P:S) assignment for the NXI.
