1.4 External I/O Signal and I/O Number
(1) Wiring of I/O devices
The signals output from the external input devices are substituted by the input
numbers which are determined by the installation positions and terminal
numbers of the connected input module and used in a program.
For the operation results output (coil), use the output numbers which are
determined by the installation position and the terminal number of the output
module to which the external output module is connected.

Input numbers are hexadecimal numbers that start
with 0. Input/output numbers share the same numbers.
"X" at the beginning of the number represents "Input",
and "Y" indicates "Output".
The maximum number of the QCPU (Q mode)
input/output number is 4,096.
The input/output number is sometimes referred
to as the I/O number (IN/OUT).
