I have a controller that's either a L16ER or L18ER. I need to hook up a LED display timer. There are 3 outputs I need. One goes to start/stop of the timer. One is to reset it. And the last one is to a relay that sounds a buzzer when the countdown timer hits 0. I have the controls just fine, but here's the issue.
I ran out of outputs. HOWEVER, there are 2 point I/O modules hooked up to it. One of them holds an empty sink/source input module (99% of our inputs are on armor blocks) and the other one is a 24v source output module that I filled up with the start/stop and the reset.
Does anyone have a guide on how to remove the empty input module and add an output module in its place and configure it? How quick and painless is it? Also, can it be done in just RS5K? That and RSLinx Classic Lite are the only software that the company has on out maintenance laptop.
