Configured by Options Available with Compact 5000 I/O Safety Modules
The Configured By choice determines what data is exchanged between the
owner-controller and the module. The following are example Module
Definition dialog boxes, and available Connection choices, for Compact 5000
I/O safety modules.
Table 8 describes the connection types that you can use with Compact 5000

Description
Compact 5000 I/O Safety Input Module Compact 5000 I/O Safety Output Module
This Controller The module returns the following to the owner-controller:
• General fault data
• Safety input data
• Muting lamp points
The module returns the following to the owner-controller:
• General fault data
• Safety input data
• Safety output data
When you choose This Controller, you must define the output mode that
the module uses, that is, sourcing or bipolar output mode.
External Means When the External Means option is chosen, another controller owns the module.
A controller that chosen this option does not write configuration for the module. It merely listens to the data exchanged with the owner-controller. That
is, it receives Safety input data.
For more information on Listen Only connections, see
Listen Only on page 56. In this case, all other connections to the module, for example, the
connection to the owner-controller must also use the Multicast option.
