‡
Scroll all the way to the right to find this value because the field does not appear directly right of the High_Value as expected.
If the I/O pack loses communication with the controller, OutputState determines how it drives the outputs as follows:
•
PwrDownMode: drive outputs to zero current
•
HoldLastVal: hold the last value received from the controller
Output_Value: go to the configured output value set by the Output_Value (units are Engineering Units, not mA)
•
Low_MA, Low_Value, High_MA, High_Value settings are used by the I/O pack firmware to define the linear relationship between customer-defined engineering units and
output mA. The I/O Point value will be in Engineering units, and the firmware will convert it to mA. Engineering units are specific to the field device being used.
