Remote Control Function
It is possible to remotely control several Binary Outputs in the controller. You can either use Remote
Switches tool in InteliMonitor (select Remote switches in menu for corresponding controller), import Remote
Switches tool to a SCADA diagram in Line Diagram Editor or use external device via Modbus (register
#46361 and command #26 (1A hex), for more information on Modbus please refer to the InteliGen/InteliSys
Communication guide).
Remote Switch will activate or deactivate depending on remote control so it can be used to manually control
devices, simulate malfunctions while commissioning etc.

Remote Switches may be easily used to trigger logical Binary Input function and all other related functions as
normal switch on Binary Input. Module VPIO (Virtual Peripheral Inputs- Outputs) can be added to
configuration and it will copy the state of Remote Switch on virtual output to its counterpart virtual input.
Refer to the figure below for example.

Virtual Peripheral Inputs-Outputs (VPIO) module
For the controller there are several modules available. One of them is Virtual Peripheral Inputs-Outputs
module which is particularly usefull for connection of logical Binary Output functions to logical Binary Input
functions. This way internal controller function may easily trigger other internal controller functions without
unnecessary wiring or usage of PLC functions.
Module is functioning the same way as normal module with 8 outputs and 8 inputs, but the difference is, that
each input copies its counterpart output. It is possible to select any logical Binary Output function for one of
the outputs of VPIO module. Inputs on VPIO module work the same way as standard input of the controller
(i.e. it can be assigned function and protection).
