Point Operation Type
Single
When the output channel is in the On state and without any faults, the safety
outputs turned on. The status is normal. If a fault is detected on the output
channel, the safety output data and individual safety output status turn off. See
Single-channel Point Operation Type on page 61
.
Dual
When dual-channel Point Operation Type is used, output channels function as
connection pairs. Connection pairs are as follows:
• Channels 0 and 1
• Channels 2 and 3
• Channels 4 and 5
• Channels 6 and 7
When both output channels in a connection pair are in the On state and without
any faults, the safety outputs are turned on. See
.
Point Mode
Determines the operation mode of the output point.
• Not Used - Output is not used.
• Safety - Output is a safety output.
• Safety Pulse Test - Tests the safety output itself using an internally
generated test pulse. Pulse testing detects shorts to the 24V power supply
and channel-to-channel shorts. The pulse test only occurs when the point
is On. The pulse has a fixed state of periodic.
Output State During Program Mode and Communications Fault Mode
You can select the output state (Off or Hold) for each channel to change to
during:
• Program Mode and you encounter a Communications Fault.
• Run Mode and you encounter a Communications Fault.
