zero, so that the output is turned off when you delete the 
application program that controls it. 
Fault Name
This is the name used in the application program to reference 
the output point line fault status. The name can be up to 12 
characters long. 
During operations the output module is regularly tested for 
open load, shorted load and blown fuse conditions. If any of 
these conditions occur, the Fault Name variable will turn on. 
Fault Name Description
This 40-character field provides a place to describe the output 
point fault name definition. The description is used to help 
document your system (it does not affect application program 
operation). 
Disable Fault LED
Marking the Disable Fault LED check box disables the 
load/fuse fault LED for this output point on the face of the 
output module. Marking this box does not stop the module 
from performing load monitoring and blown fuse detection, it 
only stops the module from displaying load/fuse faults on the 
face of the output module. Load/fuse faults are still reported 
to the Regent and are available to the application program 
through the fault name variable. 
This box can be checked for those output points that are spare 
and have no field loads connected. In this configuration the 
load/fuse fault LED will always be off. If you do not check this 
box for unconnected spare points, the load/fuse fault will 
always be on. 
Output Module Definition
In addition to configuring output point definitions, you can 
configure the output module definition to represent the 
combined state of all 16 output points. This configuration is 
done in the Monitored Guarded Output Module dialog shown 
in Figure 10. 
The module definition represents the 16 output point 
definitions as signed, 16-bit integers. The Module Output 
name represents the 16 output names and the Module Fault
