Configuring your 1794-OB8EP Output Module
Configure your output module by setting bits in the configuration word
Program the 1794-OB8EP
If your program automatically checks for fault bits, bits 8…15 of read word 1 must be
masked. This is a sample program for a module at rack address 1, group 0. Add similar
rungs to your program.
Reset a Fault on the 1794-OB8EP – Faults can be reset 3 ways: Press the fault reset
button on the front of the module; or toggle the output reset bit (write word 1, bit 08); or
cycle backplane power.
Use the Reset Button on the 1794-OB8EP – When you press the reset button, the fault
indicator for the faulted output turns off for about 1.2 s. After the delay, the faulted output
attempts to turn on. If the external condition causing the fault is corrected, the output will
remain on, the fault indicator is off, and the status indicator is on.

Where: O = Output – O0 corresponds to output 0, 01 corresponds to output 1, and so on.
F = Overload fault bit – 1 = fault present; 0 = no fault
FR = Fault reset bit – 1 = reset output; 0 = no change
