Fast Module Features
Fast Output Module
Compatibility
ControlLogix fast output modules can be used to drive a variety of output
devices. Typical output devices compatible with ControlLogix outputs include
these items:
•
Solenoids
•
Indicators
Follow these guidelines when designing a system:
•
Make sure that the ControlLogix outputs can supply the necessary surge
and continuous current for proper operation.
•
Make sure that the surge and continuous current are not exceeded.
Damage to the module could result.
When sizing output loads, refer to the documentation supplied with the output
device for the surge and continuous current needed to operate the device.
Outputs on fast output modules can be directly wired to inputs on fast input
modules.
Fast Features
Module features include all the common features described in
, as well
the extended capabilities described within this chapter.
For higher-speed control, the 1756-OB16IEF output module can be configured
to receive input status over the backplane directly from the 1756-IB16IF input
module or 1756-LSC8XIB8I counter module without controller processing.
This feature, know as peer ownership, is described in the ControlLogix Peer
Ownership Application Technique, publication
IMPORTANT
To configure the modules, you must have the following:
• The 1756-OB16IEF module requires RSLogix 5000 software, version
18.02.00 or later or Studio 5000 environment, version 21.00.00 or later.
• The 1756-OB16IEFS module requires Studio 5000 environment, version
21.00.00 or later.
