Figure 18 Channel Type Template Editor
To change the channel type, point and click right-hand mouse button on the channel required to get the
Type selection menu. Click on the desired channel type. The icon in the channel list will show I or O for
input or output as requested.
When the correct channel Types have been entered, the user must select the OK button. This will
return the user to the Template Creation window which permits the newly created template to be
saved. The filename must not include any spaces. Underscores are recommended.
2.3.20. De-energised Short Circuit Detection Templates
Output modules by default do not detect for short circuit faults when de-energised. Using this template,
they may be configured to detect de-energised short circuit faults on some or all channels. The
impedance below which a de-energised short circuit fault is reported is 40 ohms. Note that the cold
resistance of small incandescent lamps may be less than this threshold.
