Allows the host to control the discrete outputs
(regardless of their ”normal” state) for a set

When the duration expires, the output

reverts to its previous state.

a normally closed output is held closed), the
state of the output will not change.

ATTENTION: An output held open or closed will
reestablish itself after a power loss (all other conditions
will be deactivated if power is lost). A Restart
command will deactivate a held output.
