Chapter 4 1756-OBV8S Output Module Features
Output Recovery After Overload or Short Circuit to Ground Condition
Ta b le 2 1 describes test output recovery after overload or short circuit to ground
conditions occur.
Thermal Shutoff
Thermal Shutoff helps prevent damage to the output that can result when an
output gets hotter than it can handle.
This feature is directly related to Short Circuit Protection feature. The
increased temperature at the output results from an excessive load at the output.
That is, a load with high current is applied to the output. The high current heats
the output beyond an acceptable temperature and the output turns off.
Tab le 22
describes what happens when a thermal shutoff condition is detected
on a 1756-OBV8S module.
Tab le 23
describes what happens when the thermal shutoff condition is
corrected on a 1756-OBV8S module.
For more information on how to use the modules, see Appendix B, Module Tag
Definitions on page 113.

Cause of Fault Module Operating Conditions Correction Recovery Time
Overload Condition • Output Point Mode - Safety or Safety
Pulse Test.
• Output Data tag = 1.
• Overload current ≥1.5 A
(1)
Remove the load from the output point. See Safety Output Fault Reset on page 63.
Short Circuit to Ground
Condition
• Output Point Mode - Safety or Safety
Pulse Test.
• Output Data tag = 1.
• Output is connected directly to ground.
Remove the output connection to ground and
set the output to a safe state.
(1) Do not use the module beyond the rated the capacity of 1 A per channel for continuous operation. For ratings, see the 1756 ControlLogix I/O Specifications Technical Data pub 1756-TD002.

One of the following:
• If the output point is shorted to 24V DC when the thermal shutoff
condition occurred, the I.Ptxx.ShortCircuit tag = 1.
• If the output point is shorted to ground when the thermal shutoff
condition occurred, there is no change to the tags.
One of the following:
• If the output point is shorted to 24V DC when
the thermal shutoff condition occurred, there is
no change in the diagnostics.
• If the output point is shorted to ground when
the thermal shutoff condition occurred, the
ShortCircuitGround diagnostic = 1.

Remains in the off state I.Ptxx.ShortCircuit tag = 0 One of the following:
• If the output point was shorted to 24V DC when the thermal shutoff
condition occurred, the Overload diagnostic = 0.
IMPORTANT: You must cycle power to the module to reset the diagnostic.
• If the output point was shorted to ground when the thermal shutoff
condition occurred, the ShortCircuitGround diagnostic = 0.
Turns off if there is no longer a load
that is connected to the output.
