4.2.59 Intelligent output terminal a/b (NO/NC) selection 
The intelligent output terminal a/b (NO/NC) selection function 
allows you to specify a-contact or b-contact output for each of 
the intelligent output terminals [11] to [15] and the alarm relay 
terminal. 
The intelligent output terminals [11] to [15] are used for open-collector output, and the alarm relay terminal 
is used for relay output.
