3. Application Trusted TMR 24Vdc Digital Output Module – 40 Channel

3.3. Sequence of Events Configuration

Each Boolean Output Variable can be configured for automatic Sequence of Events (SOE)
logging. This applies to the Output Status and Line Fault Status variables. A Boolean variable
is configured for SOE during the variable definition in the Data Dictionary Editor. To select
SOE, press the Extended Button in the Boolean Variable Definition Dialog Box to open the
Extended Definition Dialog. Then check the box for Sequence of Events to enable the
variable for automatic SOE logging.
During operation, the Output Module automatically reports time-stamped change of state
information for the output data. The TMR Processor automatically logs change of state for
configured SOE variables into the system SOE Log. The SOE Log can be monitored and
retrieved using the SOE and Process Historian Package running on the EWS. This software
package is described in Trusted Sequence of Events and Process Historian Package,
publication ICSTT-RM243 (PD-T8013).

3.4. System.INI File Configuration

There are many operating characteristics of the Output Module that can be customised for a
particular application. The System Configuration Manager is a tool that allows the user to
configure the specific operating characteristics for each Module. Descriptions of the items
that may be configured for the Trusted 24 Vdc Digital Output Module T8451 are contained
in Trusted Toolset Suite, publication ICSTT-RM249 (PD-T8082).
Certain characteristics apply to the entire Module and are considered Module Configurable
Items. Other characteristics apply to individual output channels and are considered Channel
Configurable Items. There are specific default settings for each of the configurable items. If
the default settings are appropriate for a given application, customization of the Module
definition in the System Configuration Manager is not required.
In order for short circuit detection to function while outputs are de-energised, a short circuit
detection template is required.
