State of output point, Status bits, LEDs and Fault Bit for the three operating states 
are as follows:
YES: Module outputs that fault during the ON state are controlled by a thermal 
protection mechanism. At shutdown the appropriate fault/status indications will be 
present.
After shutdown, the output device will cool and try to turn itself back on. If the fault 
has been removed, the output will function normally and fault/status indications will 
be removed. If the fault is still present. the point will again shut down and repeat the 
cycle until the fault is removed or the point is commanded off.
When a faulted point is commanded off, all fault indications will no longer be present 
because the miscompare will no longer exist.

Possible Safety Hazard
When choosing "YES", the use of thermally protected output devices with the 
140DVO85300 module can produce safety concerns.
In the event of an enabled output sensing an overcurrent condition, the output will 
disable, until the overcurrent condition is removed. The output will then re-enable 
itself, if still set ON in the logic program.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or 
equipment damage.
