4. Set up the control system outputs in the UI. See
Setting Up System 450 Outputs on page 12.
IMPORTANT: Do not change the module positions
after a System 450 control system is set up in the UI.
System 450 control logic is set up in the UI according
to the Sensor Types, the output types, and the output
numbers. Changing modules or module positions in a
module assembly that is already set up in the UI can
change the output numbers, output types, and the
setup values of the assembly outputs, which requires
setting up the outputs again.
Viewing the Startup, Main, and System Status
Screens
Every time you connect power to a System 450 control
module, the Startup screen appears for several
seconds before the Main screens appear. The Startup
screen displays the current firmware version for the
module. See Table 2 and System 450 Firmware
Versions for more information.
After you install, wire, power on, and set up your control
system in the UI, the Main screens appear on the LCD,
immediately after the Startup screen. During normal
operation, the Main screens automatically scroll
through the current status of each sensor in your
control system. See Table 2 for more information.

System 450 Firmware Versions
System 450 firmware versions identify the features
available on System 450 modules. System 450 control
modules with network communications have the High
Input-Signal Selection and Differential Control features.
See High Input-Signal Selection and Differential
Control on page 11 for more information.
Accessing the System 450 Setup Start Screens
Access the System 450 Setup Start screens from the
Main screen. See Table 2 for more information about
the Setup Start screens.
To access the System 450 setup screens:
1. Apply power to your module assembly. After the
Startup screen appears briefly (displaying the
control module firmware version), the Main screen
appears on the LCD.
2. In the Main screen, press and hold
simultaneously for 5 seconds to access the setup
screens and go to the Sensor Setup Start screen.
