When you check this box and go online, the icon representing this card in the
controller organizer displays the Attention Icon.
Major Fault on Controller if Connection Fails checkbox
Check this box to configure the controller so that failure of the connection to
this card causes a major fault on the controller if the connection for the card
fails.
Module Fault
Displays the fault code returned from the controller (related to the card you
are configuring) and the text detailing the Module Fault that has occurred.
The following are common categories for errors:
• Connection Request Error - The controller is attempting to make a
connection to the card and has received an error. The connection was
not made.
ATTENTION
!
Inhibiting the card causes the connection to the card to be
broken and may result in loss of data.
If you are: Check this checkbox to:
offline put a place holder for a card you are configuring
online stop communication to a card
If you inhibit the card while you are online and connected to the card, the
connection to the card is nicely closed. The card's outputs go to the last
configured Program mode state.
If you inhibit the card while online but a connection to the card has not been
established (perhaps due to an error condition or fault), the card is inhibited.
The card status information changes to indicate that the card is 'Inhibited' and
not 'Faulted'.
If you uninhibit a card (clear the checkbox) while online, and no fault condition
occurs, a connection is made to the card and the card is dynamically
reconfigured (if you are the owner controller) with the configuration you have
created for that card.
If you are a listener (have chosen a “Listen Only” Communications Format), you
can not re-configure the card.
If you uninhibit a card while online and a fault condition occurs, a connection is
not made to the card.
