Programming the 1794-OB8EP and -OB8EPK
If your program automatically checks for fault bits, bits 8
thru 15 of read word 1 must be masked. This is a sample
program for a module at rack address 1, group 0. Add
similiar rungs to your program.
Resetting a Fault on the 1794-OB8EP or -OB8EPK
Faults can be reset 3 ways: press the fault reset button on
the front of the module; or toggle the output reset bit
(write word 1, bit 08); or cycle backplane power.
Using the Reset Button on the 1794-OB8EP or
-OB8EPK
When you press the reset button, the fault indicator for
the faulted output turns off for about 1.2s. After the
delay, the faulted output attempts to turn on. If the
external condition causing the fault is corrected, the
output will remain on, the fault indicator is off, and the
status indicator is on.
Configuring Your 1794-OB8, -OB16, -OB16P and -OB32P Output
Module
You configure your output module by setting bits in the
configuration word (word 3).
