Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration for the Output Modules 4-25
1769-OF8C and -OF8V Enable/Disable Channel
This configuration selection (bit 15) allows each channel to be individually
enabled.
Clamping/Limiting
Clamping limits the output from the analog module to remain within a range
configured by the controller, even when the controller commands an output
outside that range. This safety feature sets a high clamp and a low clamp.
Once clamps are determined for a module, any data received from the
controller that exceeds those clamps sets an appropriate limit alarm and
transitions the output to that limit but not beyond the requested value.
