DT2821-G-8DI Digital Output

DT2821-G-8DI series boards have two I/O ports, each containing 8 digital I/O lines. These ports can be configured independently for either input or output. Use a separate driver block for each port. By selecting the digital output driver block for a given port, that port is configured for output.
