Bad DIO module?
Posted: 27 Nov 2019, 17:39
I have just set up a Core3 and DIO module to begin a project. I've set up the system mostly following the RS/Designspark tutorial and I'm now at the stage where the RevPi is configured and ready for me to add my own code.
I have put together a little test rig and wired up some LED Pilot lights to 4 of the outputs and a simple NO pushbutton switch to an Input. Starting Revpipycontrol.exe I can connect to the RevPi, I then go to PLC watch mode, click the DIO module and tick the option to autorefresh and to write values to IO. So far so good, no errors. If I then tick an output, no voltage appears at the output pin. If I click my pushbutton, no input value changes.
So, am I doing something wrong? Is my DIO module faulty?
Look forwards to your ideas on how to resolve this.
