Digital Output Relay Modules between the required position and the back indication signal is reported to the CPU and is available to the user program. In some applications it is necessary to inhibit relay output operation when attending the site for safety reasons. In all DO relay modules, it is possible to inhibit all relays per DO module. When a module is configured to enable relay inhibiting, the power to the relays is provided from the power supply via a dedicated power line (12V DO), controlled from the "12V DO" input (TB located on the power supply module front panel). When the input's terminals are shorted, the relays are operational. When the input's terminals are open, the relays are inhibited (EE relays in 0 position and ML relays do not change state.) The user program can monitor the relay inhibiting status and act accordingly. Also, when the module's relays are inhibited, any mismatch between the relay position and the output logical state is ignored. Each output can be configured to "Keep Last Value" (KLV) or to a "Predefined Value" (PDV 0 or 1). This value is executed when the user program stops or when the module has no communication with the CPU module. Also, the PDV can be used during normal operation to force a value on the output by ignoring the user program value (mask). In the ML relay modules, it is possible to configure the module to reset all the ML relays positions on startup. This is set in the STS site configuration.

In Sleep Mode, the module does not function and the power consumption is minimized. The DO module can be diagnosed and monitored using the STS Hardware Test utility. This test verifies that the module is operational, presents the module configuration and shows the actual value of each output. It is also possible to change the DO's value. In the Hardware Test utility, it is possible to set the module to Freeze Mode. In this mode, the 23
