How to configure a I/O module? keep getting ''port assignment is invalid''

Hi Robotfellas

I have just installed a i/o board in my FAnuc Rj3 i-size
the power led is the only (of the four) leds that is on on the first block (the input leds is also on if i conect 24v )

i sume that i shall use the port JD1B ?
on the big yellow board i guess that i shal use i/o link? (but there is another conector there (is this for the i/o on the robot?(they work 8in/8out)))

How shall the setting be RACK SLOT START PT I keep getting ''port assignment is invalid'' (shall i do anything else somewhere?)
I guess: 0 1 1 (is this right?)

Thank you all wery much....

Hi, and thanks

I finally got connection with the inputs (with the cable in JD1B and the i/o link in the other end, just the way the below pictures illustrates)

..but after removing the small cable(JD4) that was in the i/o link plug, I cant use the robot i/o anymore (on the 3 arm)

so my question can i connect this JD4 cable, to the I/o module (for example JD1A or JD2) and re-establish the i/o on the robot arm?

Thanks.........

Hi and thanks for the very useful answers.

finanaly git all working

with: rack1 slot 1 start 1

the JD4 cable still in i/o link on the yellow board.
and the cable to the i/o module in JD1B and in a socket on the board in the small "operator" box

then both i/o module and i/o on the robot works.

thanks for the best forum on the web
