Table 38 - 5094-OB16S Module Input Tags
 Name Data Type Definition Valid Values
RunMode BOOL The point’s operating state • 0 = Idle
•1 = Run Mode
ConnectionFaulted BOOL Indicates if a connection is running.
The module sets this tag to 0 when connected. If the module 
is not connected, it changes the tag to 1.
• 0 = Connection running
• 1 = Connection not running
DiagnosticActive BOOL Indicates if any diagnostics are active or if the prognostics 
threshold is reached.
•0 = No diagnostics active
• 1 = One or more diagnostics are active 
or the prognostics threshold is reached
Uncertain BOOL Indicates if the module is operating outside is designed 
operating range of if data is under manual or override 
control.
• 0 = Good
• 1 = Uncertain
DiagnosticSequenceCount SINT Increments for each time a distinct diagnostic condition is 
detected, and when a distinct diagnostic condition 
transitions from detected to not detected. 
Set to zero by product reset or power cycle. Wraps from 255 (-
1) to 1 skipping zero.
-128…127
The value of 0 is skipped except during 
module power-up.
Ptxx.Data BOOL Indicates the current digital output value. • 0 = Off
•1 = On
Ptxx.Fault BOOL • Indicates that point data is inaccurate and cannot be 
trusted for use in the application.
For more information, see Module Data Quality Reporting
 
on page 47.
• The channel is set to Not Used.
• 0 = Good data
• 1 = Bad data (faulted) or set to Not 
Used
If the tag is set to 1, you must 
troubleshoot the module to correct the 
cause of the inaccuracy.
IMPORTANT: Once the condition that 
causes the tag to change to 1 is 
removed, you must complete the steps 
described in Safety Output Fault Reset
 
on page 85 to reset this tag to 0.
If the tag is 1 because the channel is 
set to Not Used, no action is required.
Ptxx.Uncertain BOOL Indicates that the point data can be inaccurate but the 
degree of inaccuracy is not known.
For more information, see Module Data Quality Reporting
 on 
page 47.
Indicates OverTemperature and CriticalTemperature situation 
in 5094-OB16S module.
• 0 = Good data
• 1 = Uncertain data
If the tag is set to 1, you must 
troubleshoot the module to correct the 
cause of the inaccuracy.
IMPORTANT: Once the condition that 
causes the tag to change to 1 is 
removed, the tag automatically resets 
to 0.
Ptxx.NoLoad BOOL Indicates that the signal wire has been disconnected from 
one of its terminals or the RTB has been removed. Used with 
Output points.
•0 = No fault
•1 = Fault
Ptxx.ShortCircuit BOOL Indicates an output short circuit or overcurrent. • 0 = No short circuit
• 1 = Short circuit or overcurrent
Ptxx.Status BOOL Indicates the status of the channel. • 0 = Bad, causing a fault
• 1 = Good
