14 1756-HSC Module Features
Additional I/O Module Features
The following items are additional features for ControlLogix I/O modules,
including the 1756-HSC module.
Feature Description
Configuration software RSLogix 5000 software has a custom interface to configure
your module. All module features can be enabled and
disabled through the software.
Module fault reporting I/O modules provide both hardware and software
indications when a module fault occurs. Status indicators
signal fault conditions. The RSLogix 5000 programming
software describes the fault message so you know what
action to take to resume normal operation.
Status indicators Status indicators on the front of the module report the
operational status of the 1756-HSC module. The input-point
status display indicates a particular point’s status, including
specifics for the input A, B, and Z (reset) points for each
channel of the 1756-HSC module. The output-point status
display indicates the status of four output points on the
1756-HSC module.
Producer/consumer model Logix5000 controllers let you produce (broadcast) and
consume (receive) system-shared tags. The 1756-HSC
module can produce data without having to be polled first by
a controller. The 1756-HSC module produces the data and
any owner-controller device can decide to consume it.
Electronic Keying See page 73 in Chapter 5 for details.
RIUP RIUP is an abbreviation for removal and insertion under
power. The module can be inserted and removed from the
chassis while power is applied. This flexibility allows you to
maintain the module, either removing or inserting, without
disrupting the rest of the controlled process.
