Application
There is no configuration required to the physical Output Module. All
configurable characteristics of the Module are performed using tools on the
Engineering Workstation (EWS) and become part of the application or
System.INI file that is loaded into the TMR Processor. The TMR Processor
automatically configures the Output Module after applications are
downloaded and during Active/Standby changeover.
The IEC 61131 TOOLSET provides the main interface to configure the Output
Module. Details of the configuration tools and configuration sequence are
provided Trusted Toolset Suite Product Description, publication
(PD-T8082). There are three procedures necessary to configure the
Output Module:
1.
Define the necessary I/O variables for the field output data and Module
status data using the Dictionary Editor of the IEC 61131 TOOLSET.
2.
Create an I/O Module definition in the I/O Connection Editor for each
I/O Module. The I/O Module definition defines physical information,
for example, Chassis and Slot location, and allows variables to be
connected to the I/O channels of the Module.
3.
Using the Trusted® System Configuration Manager, define custom
LED indicator modes, per-channel default or fail-safe states, and other
Module settings.
The T8461 I/O Complex Equipment Definition includes eight I/O boards,
referenced numerically by Rack number:
