    • Note: If the Input is connected directly to a Controller the Controller and SIO Board fields will have the same name.
  5. Next, choose a Name for the Input.
    • Note: Using good names can make the process of servicing and debugging much easier.
  6. Select the Input Number that corresponds with where the Input is connected to on the SIO Board.
    • Note: The physical board should be labeled with these numbers, if not use the official board documentation.
