Configuring Modules for Communication on a Remote I/O Network
Chapter

Inhibit Module
Check/clear this box if you want to disable/enable connection to the adapter when the controller goes
online. If this box is checked, and you go online, the controller organizer displays an inhibit icon next to
this module.
ATTENTION:
Inhibiting the adapter causes the connection to the adapter to be
disabled and can result in the loss of data.
Major Fault On Controller If
Connection Fails While in Run
Mode
Determine what action you want the controller to take if communication is lost to the adapter. Place a
check mark in this box if you want a major fault to occur on the controller if communication with the
adapter is lost. Leaving this box unchecked means that failure to connect to the adapter will not cause a
major controller fault.
ATTENTION:
If communication with a module fails, the controller operates on old
data from the module. To avoid potential injury or damage, either monitor
communications with modules or configure modules to produce a major fault if
communications fail.
