Digital input assignment for input control mode
If a digital input is used for multi-tariff, it cannot be used for an exclusive association (such as Demand Sync or Input Metering), but digital inputs can be shared with a non-exclusive association (such as Alarms). To make a digital input available for setting tariffs, any conflicting associations must be manually removed at the source of the original association.
You cannot configure any digital input tariff if digital input 1 is not available for association. Likewise, digital input 2 must be available to select more than two tariffs.
The status of the digital inputs is used to calculate the binary value of the active tariff, where off = 0 and on = 1. The calculation of the number of tariffs value can differ, depending on the number of digital inputs that can be selected (i.e., inputs that can be associated with multi-tariff).
