Failure
You can configure the drive module to generate a major fault in the
controller if the drive loses its connection to the controller.
If you do not configure the major fault to occur, you should monitor the
drive module status. If the drive loses its connection to the controller:
• Outputs remain in their last
• Inputs remain in their last state
• By default the drive will fault
Configure the drive to generate a controller major fault when the drive loses
its connection to the controller. Or, monitor the status of the drive module.

unsafe operation.
