Ladder Logic Configuration Examples
Publication 1746Ć6.8 - April 1997
This example shows how you could monitor the open circuit error
bits of each channel and set an alarm in the processor if one of the
channels opens. An open circuit error can occur if the analog input
device breaks, or one of the sensor wires gets cut or disconnected
from the terminal block.
