The configuration file is typically modified by using the programming software
compatible with your controller. It can also be modified through the control
program, if supported by the controller. See
Channel Configuration on page 42
for more information.
1. Apply power to the controller system.
2. Download your program, which contains the thermocouple module
configuration settings, to the controller.
3. Put the controller in Run mode.
During a normal startup, the module status indicator turns on.
Module and channel configuration errors are reported to the controller. These
errors are typically reported in the controller’s I/O status file.
Channel status data is also reported in the module’s input data table, so these bits
can be used in your control program to flag a channel error.
