Read IO
The Read IO Block reads the lines of Input Bank 0, and the state of the Precision I/O interface, from the Cognex Communication Card, and assigns them to the block's output pins. The number of output pins are defined by selecting the number of visible output pins that can be configured, using the Select Visible Pins dialog.
