Network Outputs Activation
Control unit or SLC outputs activate when commanded on by operating instructions
contained in each networked control unit's event output control (EOC) program. The EOC

Normal Mode to any of the event-driven, Off-Normal operating states discussed in
Paragraph 3-2.1. The control unit must be configured to selectively receive and respond
to the event as described Paragraph 3-3.8, or the network must be configured for global
operation.
