Once the GIO and the Guidance controller are configured, the general-purpose digital input and output signals on the GIO can be easily accessed from the controller as remote I/O signals. The update period for these signal values is the same as the trajectory period set by "Trajectory Generator update period in sec" (DataID 600) on the master controller.
To specify a GIO's general-purpose digital I/O signal from the master controller, multiply the GIO's network node number (not the GIO's unit number) by 100000 and add the I/O signal’s number. For example, to access a GIO board configured as the 2nd or nth network node, add 200000 or 100000*n to the signal number.
