We are using a B&R fieldbus controller X67BCE321.L12 with several X67DM1321.L12 I/O modules connected.
Most of the modules are working as expected. However, on some modules, the input signals are not registering in the normal input bytes (byte 1 and byte 2). Instead, the signals are only visible in the latched input bytes (byte 2 and byte 3).
This raises the question:
Is there a specific configuration required on the module to select between latched inputs and non-latched inputs?
Or is it possible that latch mode is inadvertently enabled on these modules?
You can only toggle whether a channel functions as an input or an output. The various function models merely distinguish between a counter and an I/O module. The inputs should always be mapped to the input image.
