Chapter 2
Module Operation
This chapter details the operation of the 1769-HSC module. We strongly suggest
that you review this information before configuring your module.
Counter Defaults
When the module powers up, all output array and configuration array values are
set to their default values. Refer to
Chapter 4 on page 65 or Appendix D on page
149 for default values. All input array values are cleared. None of the module data
is retentive through a power cycle.
Power cycling the module has the following effects:
• Clears stored counts and configurations
• Clears faults and flags
• Turns outputs off
