Trouble with expansion CP1W

[theinquisitor55]

Hello!

i am having a weird problem with this expansion CP1W-8ER.

using the switch box utility i have no trouble forcing ON and Off the Output  for example 101.01

but when i try to add this address to a line in CX programmer. it appears like a Work output not a physical one

Any suggestions?

Attached  are some pics

 

Thank you for your help

This is correct.

CX Programmer does not know if it is a physical address or internal because the CP series PLCs do not require an I/O Table. (I/O is 'plug and play'). Notice the project tree does not contain the item, "IO Table and Unit Setup".

The only exception in the CP series is the CP1H.

And the CP1H would still show CP1W Expansion modules as Work.  Only the CJ modules attached to the side would show in the I/O table.

I assumed it would show because of the I/O table. Thanks for the information.
