HwgIO

The HW group I/O Controller 2 is a general purpose digital input-output Ethernet controller, with 8 inputs and 8 outputs.

This I/O Server also supports the legacy PortBox, ER84 and ER88 conrollers.

HSYCO Configuration

Add an HWGIO I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:

Communication

• IP Address: host name or IP address of the I/O Controller
• IP Port: TCP/IP port to use, leave blank to use default port 23

High Availability

• Shutdown when inactive: defaults to true (the I/O Controller only accepts one connection and can't be accessed by two HSYCO servers simultaneously).

Options

There are no available configuration options for the HWGIO I/O Server.

Datapoints

The data points associated to the input pins are named “i1” to “i8”. The data points associated to the output pins are named “o1” to “o8”.

The I/O Server generates asynchronous events based on the status of the I/O Controller's input and output pins. The output data points can be written to control the output pins.

ID	Value	R/W	Description
connection	online	R	connection established
	offline	R	HSYCO can't connect to the panel
i<n>	0	R	input <n> is low
	1	R	input <n> is high
o<n>	0	R	output <n> is low
		W	set output <n> to off
	1	R	output <n> is high
		W	set output N to on
	flip	W	invert the status of output <n>
	blink	W	continuously blink output <n>
	pulse	W	set output <n> to on, then off after 1 sec.
