Trouble adding I/O to the Process I/O Board through CRM2A

    Hello all!

    I'm a Fanuc Greenhorn and need to add some push buttons and lights to a R-J3 controller. The process I/O board has a CRM2A port which I believe is the port I need. I bought the connector and soldered it to the pins I think I need. Keeping in mind I'm going off a European manual and am not sure it is the same as the model I have. I'm pretty sure it is correct judging from post I've read off this site. I'm not getting any response from the I/O screen when I flag my I/O. I'm looking in the UOP screen.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I found my I/O under the Digital I/O. Can anyone give me some insight into how I interconnect my Di to Si. I don't see an option for this under interconnect.
    What I'm trying to accomplish is have a peripheral push button turn on my Cycle Start.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    It sounds as though you'll want to configure UOP (UI and UO) for your start signal. Start appears to be CRM-2A-pin 6. You'll also need to enable UOP signals by pressing MENU, 0 next page, SYSTEM, F1, CONFIG, go to item 7 Enable UI and set to true. As for the config page for i/o press MENU, I/O, F1, UOP, F2 config. I'm a little rusty on process I/O, but usually you set up about 18 inputs and 20 outputs dedicated to UOP. The rack# is usually 0, slot # is usually 1, start point 1.
