Configuring Outputs
Before you can monitor outputs, they must first be configured. Outputs can be
configured individually as discrete outputs (see
Configuring Panel I/O and Groups section
on page
46) or collectively as a group of outputs.
Note: The Pulse and Restore to Schedule buttons only function when an output or a group
has a valid pulse time or a schedule assigned.
On the Outputs tab, you can do the following:
• View the current status of each output in the Discrete tab (Energized or De-
energized).
• View the current status of each group of outputs in the Groups tab.
• Energize or de-energize any output or group indefinitely.
• Pulse any output or group. This energizes the output or group for a configured
period of time (see
Monitoring and Controlling Outputs section on page 99).
• Restore the output to its configured schedule. A schedule is a specified time
period during which the output will be energized. (see
Entering a Panel Name section
on page
31).
Navigating to the Auxiliary Connections-Outputs tab:
Click to open the menu, then click Device Management > Auxiliary Connec-
tions > Outputs.
