Description
Single
(1)
The output is treated as a single channel.
Dual (default)
The POINT Guard I/O module treats the outputs as a pair. It
always sets them HI or LO as a matched pair. Safety logic
must set both of these outputs ON or OFF at the same time
or the module declares a channel fault.
(1) Does not apply to bipolar outputs.

Description
Not Used
The output is disabled.
Safety
The output point is enabled, and it does not perform a
pulse test on the output.
Safety Pulse Test
The output point is enabled and performs a pulse test on
the output. When the output is energized, the output
pulses LO briefly. The pulse test detects if 24V remains on
the output terminal during this LO pulse due to a short to
24V or if the output is shorted to another output terminal.
