Configure the Adapter Chapter 3
Set a Fault Action By default, when I/O communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is
disconnected) or the controller is idle (in Program mode or faulted), the end
device responds by faulting, if it is using I/O from the network. You can
configure a different response to a communication fault or an idle controller in
the end device. For instructions on how to change the fault or idle actions, refer
to the appropriate user manual.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Various parameters in
the end device let you determine the action of the adapter and the end device if
I/O communication is disrupted or the controller is idle. By default, these
parameters turn off the outputs of the end device. You can set these parameters
so that the outputs react as desired (for example, to keep the motor running).
Take precautions to be sure that the settings of these parameters do not create a
risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the end device, verify
that your system responds correctly to various situations (for example, a
disconnected cable or faulted controller).
