72 The I/O input points on the module are named from the next X point, using the points on the host as endpoints. For example:
73
74 1. If the host is LX3V-1212MR-A and there are 12 input points (X0 to X7, X10 to X13).
75 1. If you expand an LX3V-16EX module on the host, the X points defined in the module on the host are X20 to X27 and X30 to X37.
76 1. If you expand multiple I/O input point modules on the host, the I/Os on the module will be named in the same order.

80 **✎Note: **When adding IO expansion modules to the host, in principle, the number of all input points X must not exceed 256 points. When adding IO expansion modules to the host, if the host needs to connect multiple IO modules, it is recommended to add a separate power supply board to the module for power supply.

The host has 36 input points X: X0 to X7, X10 to X17, X20 to X27. X30 to X37 and X40 to X43. The input point in the module ① called by host are X50 to X57 and X60 to X67, and the input points in the module ③ called by host are X70 to X77 and X100 to X107.
