About point inputs

Writable points have 16 input properties: “In1” to “In16,” corresponding to priority levels. As needed, you can link up to 14 of these inputs to another component in the station. Figure 92 shows a BooleanWritable with links made to 3 inputs.

NoteRead-only (plain) points do not have any input properties.

Example links made to priority inputs

By default, a writable point’s glyph (shape on wire sheet) shows only inputs In10 and In16 “pinned” for linking. However, when linking to a writable point, the Link editor shows all available priority inputs. For more details, see About the priority scheme.
