LED Templates for Output Modules

The LED template defines the mapping between the output state and the front panel indicators for the specific module. Use the
LED State Editor
to map the required operation for all output channels. An LED mapping entry is made using the following syntax:
state# = <OFF | RED | GREEN [+FLASH]>
If no entries are made in this section, the module will operate with the default LED mapping. The following example displays the default values for the 8451 Digital Output Module, which are suitable for outputs without line monitoring devices installed.

TIP: State 7 represents a module fault. States 8 through 15 all represent channel fault states (except for the 8449 Valve Monitor module). For the 8449 module, states 8 through 15 are used differently since the valve outputs and position inputs are grouped in pairs.
To configure the color and operating modes of the LED front panel indicators
  1. From the
    Template Creation
    dialog box, enter the template name, select an applicable
    Module Type
    , then select the

    • Off
    • Red
    • Green
    • Red Flash
    • Green Flash
      The modified channel LED of the output module displays.
  3. In the
    LED State Editor
    , configure the required output channel states, and then click
    OK
    .
