1. Double-click Output Points xx/xx.
The Output Points folder expands. In this example, 00/01 is shown.
2. Assign the Operation Type.

1. Double-click General.
Choose Description
Single
(1)
The output is treated as a single channel.
Dual (default) The Guard I/O module treats the outputs as a pair. It always sets them
HI or LO as a matched pair. Safety logic must set both of these outputs
ON or OFF as the same time or the module declares a channel fault.
(1) Does not apply to bipolar outputs.
Choose Description
Not Used (default) The output is disabled.
Safety The output point is enabled, and it does not perform a pulse test on
the output.
Safety Pulse Test The output point is enabled and performs a pulse test on the output.
When the output is energized, the output pulses LO briefly. The pulse
test detects if 24V remains on the output terminal during this LO
pulse due to a short to 24V or if the output is shorted to another
output terminal.
