Output Configuration Tab - FLEX I/O Analog
Use this tab to configure each output channel of the module. Use this tab for output or Input/Output Combo modules only. Some modules have a more detailed method used in their configuration. Select one of the following modules for more detailed configuration information.
Parameters
Voltage/Current Range
Select the voltage/current range and data format for each channel.
Hold For Initialization
The feature applies to the 1794-IF2XOF2I and 1794-OF4I modules only. Check this checkbox to enable this feature and to define the course of action to be taken for recovery from a communication fault or idle period. When the module changes from Communication Fault or Program mode to Running mode, the output signal from the module does not change from its Safe State value until the real time output value (from the controller) matches the actual analog output read back value from the module.
TIP:
For FLEX I/O Combo modules and some output modules, in order for this feature to take effect, the enable member in the module’s output tag from the controller must be set to 1 using the Data Monitor from the Controller Tags window, or by using your own program
Choose from the following Combo and output modules for their individual module tag and member name settings for holding outputs.

If:
- you are online in Program, Remote Program or Remote Run mode and,
- this controller is theowner controller and,controllerA device that controls machines or processes elements (for example, a programmable controller or relay panel).
- you have changed the module’s configuration in the software,
when you click the Apply or the OK button, the information is automatically sent to the controller. The controller tries to send the information to the module (if the connection to the module is not inhibited). If you don’t click the Apply or OK button, your changes are not sent to the controller.
TIP:
The connection to a FLEX I/O module using Rack communication cannot be inhibited. The ‘Inhibit’ checkbox on the Connection tab is disabled in this case.
