Configure Counter State in Communication Fault Mode
You can configure the counter to specific states when a connection fault occurs, that is,
the connection between the controller and the module breaks.
When the connection between a controller and module breaks, the counter can behave in the
following ways, depending on how you configure the Counter State in Communication Fault
Mode parameter:
- Continue counting – Default
- Hold its last state
- Transition to a user-defined value
You can choose to reset the stored values when the module when is in Communication Fault
Mode.
The counter remains at that state value until the connection to the controller is
re-established.
