When you use a ladder program or the software to
inhibit and reset an I/O rack, you must set or clear the
reset and inhibit bits that correspond to each quarter
rack in a given chassis. Failure to set all the appropriate
bits could cause unpredictable operation due to
scanning only part of the I/O chassis.
