1756-OF8H Module Fault
and Status Reporting

The 1756-OF8H modules multicast status and fault data to the controller with
their channel data. The fault data is arranged to let you choose the level of
granularity you desire for examining fault conditions.

Three levels of tags work together to provide increasing degree of detail as to the
specific cause of faults on the module.

Table 16

lists tags that you can examine in ladder logic to indicate when a

fault occurred.
