7.6.2 Define Operating or Standby Mode

Each output may be defined as Operating (OP), Standby (ST), or Not

Used (NU). This setting takes precedence over any setting in the over-

ride menu (see 7.9 - Override Output).
Default settings are:

• Outputs 1, 2 and 3 are in Operating (OP) mode
• Output 4 is in Standby (ST) mode

To change the mode:

• From the Setup Outputs Menu, shown at right, use the arrows

↑↓

to

choose Mode for the selected output and press Enter

.

• To change the output’s mode, use the arrows

↑↓

to

choose one of

these options:

OP (Operating)
ST (Standby)
NU (Not Used)

• Press Enter

.

7.6.3 Enable or Disable an Output Device in Alarm Status

You may choose whether to Enable or Disable an output when the con-

nected device is in alarm status. The default setting for all output

points is Enabled.

• From the Setup Outputs Menu, choose In Alarm, as shown at

right, and press Enter

.

• To make a change, use the arrows

↑↓

to

choose E (Enable) or

D (Disable) to determine what happens when an alarm is detected

in the device.

• Press Enter

.

7.6.4 Configure Output for Loss of Power (“Fail-Safe”)

Each output has an associated jumper that can help prevent undesired effects when the controller

board loses power. For example, without the proper fail-safe jumper setting, a loss of power might

close a switch that is Normally Open (NO)—perhaps shutting off an environmental unit or a fan or

closing a valve.
This fail-safe jumper setting is unrelated to configuring an output as Normally Open (NO) or Nor-

mally Closed (NC), as described in 7.6.1 - Define Output as Normally Open or Normally Closed.
To configure a digital output jumper for a loss of power:

• Set the jumper in the “OFF” position (factory default) to make the output Normally Open (NO).
• Set the jumper in the “ON” position to make the output Normally Closed (NC).

For more information, see 3.2.3 - Setting the Digital Output Jumpers.
