Input, Status, Output and Configuration Files using ControlNet

Communication Fault Behavior

You can configure the adapter response to a communication fault for each I/
O module in its system. Upon detection of a communication fault, the
adapter can:

• leave the module output data in its last state (hold last state)

• reset the module output data to zero (reset)

• apply fault state data to the module output

Idle State Behavior

The ControlNet adapter can detect the state of the controlling processor or
scanner. Only 2 states can be detected: run mode, or program mode (idle).

When run mode is detected, the adapter copies the output data received
from the processor to the corresponding module output. When program
mode is detected, the adapter can be configured to:

• leave the module output data in its last state (hold last state)

• reset the module output data to zero (reset)

• apply fault state data to the module output

Input Data Behavior upon Module Removal

I/O module input data sent by the adapter upon module removal is
configurable. The adapter can:

• reset the module input data sent by the adapter to zero (reset)

• leave the module input data sent by the adapter in the last state before

module removal (hold last state)
