Warning
If you don’t have switch 1 on (flipped up) to set it to Hardware mode, anything you
set on switches 2 and 3 will be ignored by the Click 111.
Fault
The last parameter the DIP switches can set is fault settings. These are configured on the
fourth DIP switch, labeled S4, using switches 4–6 (S4:4–6).
Note
These parameters can also be changed using the front panel menu or Click Supervisor.
These switches configure two options for the fault function:
˽ Global fault enable/disable for the entire card – If this switch is on, then no faults
will be indicated.
˽ Fault state: call or no call – This configures whether a fault produces a call or a no-call
on output channels whose bus has gone into failsafe. If this switch is off, then when a
bus goes into fault, the channel outputs will be represented by a call (which may be a
high voltage or a low voltage depending on the card’s polarity setting). If this switch
is on, then a bus fault will cause the corresponding channels to go into a no-call state.

Table 8 – DIP Switch Fault Settings
If switch 4 is on (flipped up), Hardware mode is selected, meaning that the data enable pa-
rameter will be configured using the DIP switches, and Click Supervisor and the front panel
menu will be able to display the current setting, but not change it. If switch 4 is off (down),
Software mode is selected and only Click Supervisor and the front panel menu will be able
to both display and change the current setting.
