Figure 7. Defining an Analog Output Point.

Name

Also called the tag name, this is the name used in the
application program to reference the output point. The name
can be up to 12 characters long.

Description

This 40-character field provides a place to describe the output
point definition. The description is used to help document
your system (it does not affect application program operation).

Comm Protect

Marking the Comm Protect check box protects the point from
changes by communications functions such as data write,
forcing, and load initial value when Comm Protect is enabled.

Initial Value

The initial value for the output is loaded to the Regent when
you load the I/O configuration and also when you load the
application program that controls the output.

Final Value

The final value for the output is loaded to the Regent when
the application program that controls the output is deleted.
Unless special circumstances exist, you should always enter
zero, so that the output is turned off when you delete the
application program that controls it.
