Sink (NPN) / Source (PNP) radio button
Select Sink (NPN) / Source (PNP) MODE.
Set button
DIO conguration must be dened before DO output condition.
Get button
Dene DIO conguration to get DI input condition.
Output data (Hex)
DO output condition is dened by a hexadecimal bitmask - on / off.
Range: 0x00~0xFF, 1: High; 0: Low.
Input data (Hex)
DI input condition is dened by a hexadecimal bitmask - on / off.
Range: 0x00~0xFF, 1: High; 0: Low.
Example
Dene Output data 0x00 LED all bright on sink(NPN) mode.
Dene Output data 0xFF LED all bright on source(PNP) mode.
Loopback test (connect pin.1-11 ~ pin.10-20):
Dene sink(NPN) mode output and Get source(PNP) mode input.
