RSLogix 5000 software creates tags for modules when you add them to the
I/O configuration. The 1769 module tags define configuration (C) data type
members which may include attributes for alternate outputs.
DriveLogix5730 does not enable local modules to use the alternate outputs.
Do not configure the attributes listed below:
For digital output modules:
• ProgToFaultEn
• ProgMode
• ProgValue
• FaultMode
• FaultValue
Any 1769 Compact I/O modules used as remote I/O modules in a
DriveLogix5730 system do support the Hold Last State and User-Defined
Safe State features.
Inhibiting I/O Module Operation
In some situations, such as when initially commissioning a system, it is
useful to disable portions of a control system and enable them as you wire
up the control system. The controller lets you inhibit individual modules or
groups of modules, which prevents the controller from trying to
communicate with these modules. Inhibiting a module shuts down the
connection from the controller to that module.
When you create an I/O module, it defaults to being not inhibited. You can
change an individual module's properties to inhibit a module.
ATTENTION: Inhibiting a module causes the connection to the
!
module to be broken and prevents communication of I/O data.
The controller and other I/O modules continue to operate based
on old data from that module. To avoid potential injury and
damage to machinery, make sure this does not create unsafe
operation.
Placing and Configuring Local I/O
For analog output modules:
• CHxProgToFaultEn
• CHxProgMode
• CHxFaultMode
• where CHx = the channel number
