Chapter 1
Module Overview

This chapter describes the 1762sc-OF8 output module. The module provides 8 analog
output channels that can be configured for current or voltage. Included is information
about:

 General description
 Output types and ranges
 Data Formats
 Hardware Features
 System overview and module operation

Section 1.1
General
Description

The output module supports current and voltage type outputs. The module converts the
digital value stored in each channel’s output command word to an analog current or
voltage signal. Each output channel is individually configured via software for a specific
output type, data format, and provides open-circuit or short-circuit detection and
indication.
