Module Data Types 1794-IB8

The table below lists and describes the module-defined data types for the 1794-IB8 Digital Input module. It includes information for input (as indicated by an "I") and configuration (as indicated by a "C").
Tip:
FLEX I/O is based on 16-bit INTs and not 32-bit DINTs. Using 16-bit INTs in instructions that are optimized for 32-bit DINTs may decrease performance with certain instructions.
Module-Defined Data Type: AB:1794_IB8:I:0
This module-defined data type does not apply to modules having Rack Optimization selected for the Comm Format and does not appear among the Module Tags in the RSLogix software.
