Module calibration is done automatically at power up following startup
diagnostics.
The 24-Volt loop supply is available to the module from the backplane. All
the outputs are connected to the loop supply.

Diagnostics
The module executes diagnostics on power up. When an error is detected on
power-up or during online operation, the front-panel green LED, labeled
Active, blinks the first digit at a slower rate and the second digit at a faster
rate. During normal operation the active LED is on continuously or flashes at
a steady one-second rate when the module is not being scanned. The
diagnostic codes are as follows:
