3-10 Placing and Configuring Local I/O
On the Connection tab of the Module Properties dialog, you can select to
inhibit that specific module.
When you select to inhibit a module, the controller organizer displays a
yellow circle symbol
over the module.
To inhibit a module from logic, you must first read the Mode attribute for
the module using a GSV instruction. Set bit 2 to the inhibit status (1 to
TIP: To easily inhibit all local I/O modules, you can inhibit the
CompactBus, which in turn inhibits all the modules on that bus. See
Configuring the CompactBus on page 3-5 .

If you are: Inhibit a module to:
offline put a place holder for a module you are configuring.
The inhibit status is stored in the project. When you download the project, the module is still inhibited.
online stop communication to a module.
If you inhibit a module while you are connected to the module, the connection to the module is
closed. The module’s outputs turn off.
If you inhibit a module but a connection to the module was not established (perhaps due to an error
condition or fault), the module is inhibited. The module status information changes to indicate that the
module is inhibited and not faulted.
If you uninhibit a module (clear the check box), and no fault condition occurs, a connection is made to
the module and the module is dynamically reconfigured with the configuration you created for that
module.
If you uninhibit the module and a fault condition occurs, a connection is not made to the module. The
module status information changes to indicate the fault condition.
