Overview
Discrete Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the Discrete Output if the
transmitter encounters an internal fault condition.
Note
For some faults only: If Fault Timeout is set to a non-zero value, the transmitter will not implement
the fault action until the timeout has elapsed.
CAUTION!
Do not use Discrete Output Fault Action as a fault indicator. If you do, you may not be able to
distinguish a fault condition from a normal operating condition. If you want to use the Discrete
Output as a fault indicator, set Discrete Output Source to
Fault
and set Discrete Output Fault
Action to None .
Procedure
Set Discrete Output Fault Action as desired.
The default setting is None .
