Naming Conventions

While not mandatory, it is recommended to adopt the following naming conventions for clarity and usability:

Write Operations: Prefix register names with control. to indicate that the register is used to set the digital output.
Read Operations: Prefix register names with measure. to signify that the register is used to read the digital input signal.

See the example address map below for register naming conventions.

Required Parameters

string

required

A unique name for the register.Example: measure.start

int

required

Corresponds to the number on the digital input or output module.Example: 6

Please note that the address should start from 0, not from 1. However, the physical address on the I/O module begins at 1.

string

required

Indicates whether the register is an input or an output.Options: input | output

Optional Parameters

bool

Indicates whether to invert the input or output of the digital I/O, meaning that “on” becomes “off” and vice versa. This relates to the digital input or output being a normally open or normally closed contact.

Example

dio_address_map.json

[
  {        
    "name": "control.reset",
    "address": 2,
    "type": "output"
  },
  {        
    "name": "measure.start",
    "address": 6,
    "type": "input"
  },
  {        
    "name": "measure.stop",
    "address": 7,
    "type": "input",
    "invert": true
  }
]
