Figure 7: I/O Points Status screen (outputs)

This form allows you to enter a name (up to 24 characters) to describe the device that the out-

put controls. It’s best to be as specific as possible when naming the outputs. If you click on the

I/O Setup tab, the next page of programming will appear:

Figure 8: I/O Points Setup screen (outputs)

On this form, the output type is just for reference and is not programmable. You can select

Units to describe how the Output device operates when the relay output is Open or Closed.

The first word applies to an Open relay the second to a closed relay. The default setting for

units is Off/On, corresponding to Open relay = Off and closed relay = On. Selections made

from the list of Units will be spoken during status reports.
You may also specify your own custom units by selecting Custom at the end of the list. This can

be any two words up to 8 characters each. The first word applies to an Open relay the second

to a Closed relay. The units will be displayed on the screen however they will not be spoken

during a status or alarm report. For example, Disabled/Enabled would indicate Disabled for an

Open contact and Enabled for a Closed contact. See following figure:
