Caution
Never connect the sheath surrounding shielded wiring to a signal ground
terminal or to the common terminal of an I/O module. Doing so makes the
I/O module susceptible to static discharge, which can permanently
damage the module. Connect the shielded wiring sheath only to a suitable
earth ground.

self-identifying after re-connecting to ROCLINK 800 software.
8. Configure the I/O point.
