Output State

The Scheduled Output module allows the user to define output state when in
Program Mode and Fault Mode.

Program Mode refers to the state where the following events occur:

• Controller program is not executing.
• Inputs are still actively producing data.
• Outputs are not actively controlled and go to their configured Program

mode.

Fault Mode selects the behavior the output channel takes if a communication
fault occurs. FaultValue defines the value to go to on fault if the bit is set.

Fault Mode provides individual fault mode selection for output channels. When
this selection is disabled [the bit is reset (0)] and the system enters the fault mode,
the module holds the last output state value. This means that the output remains
at the last converted value prior to the condition that caused the system to enter
the fault mode.
