Module Output Image

The module’s output image file represents data words and unlatch
control bits. Output words 0…1 are written with output data that
represents the analog value commanded to the module’s output
channels 0…1. These data words only represent the state of the
module’s outputs when the channel is enabled and there are no
errors. Output words 2…3 are written to control the unlatching of
input process alarms or output clamp status bits.

For example, to control the unlatching of a latched output clamp
status bit of output channel 1 of the module located in slot 3, use
address O:3.3/1.

Module Configuration File

The configuration file contains information that you use to define the
way a specific channel functions. The configuration file is explained in
more detail in

Chapter 3

.

The configuration file is modified using the programming software
configuration screen.

For an example of module configuration using RSLogix 500 software,
see

TIP

The end cap does not use a slot address.

TIP

The RSLogix 500 configuration default is to disable each analog
input and output channel. For improved analog module
performance, disable any unused channels.
